Mother’s day is just around the corner. It is the day we honor motherhood in different forms all across the globe. This year’s Mother’s day will be celebrated on Sunday, May 9^th.

However, that doesn’t mean we can’t celebrate the mothers of our life! These selfless beings have always gone above and beyond for their children and family, from staying up all night to ensure your good sleep to smiling through her tears just to save you from crying.

Everything she does is always mom point! And it’s time to show her your gratitude by thinking of something extraordinary!

If you really want to express gratitude for what she has done and continues to do for you, it’s better to ditch the mainstream card-and-flower combo and, instead, embrace these 25+ most creative gift ideas, quotes, songs, and messages to surprise your mother:
