As a certified professional organizer, I spend my days helping families clear physical clutter. That clutter often builds up when holidays arrive and you have the best of intentions. Mother\u2019s Day is one of those days that you intend to share a lovely gift, but may be adding clutter instead. If you are honest, most moms aren\u2019t wishing for another item to manage, store, or maintain. What they really want is something much simpler and more meaningful. They want to hear from you.<\/p>\n
A phone call may seem too small, especially in a world of curated gift guides and over-the-top Instagram-worthy luxuries. When you call your mom, you\u2019re giving her your time, attention and presence. That matters more than you think. A phone call says, \u201cI thought of you, and I didn\u2019t let the moment pass.\u201d It also says, \u201cYou still matter in my everyday life.\u201d That is what Moms want to know: that they matter every day, not just on Mother\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n
Most moms have spent years giving their time, attention, and resources to their families, their homes, and their communities. They\u2019ve managed schedules, solved problems, and often put their own needs last. What they don\u2019t always receive in return is a simple, uninterrupted connection. Moms want time to connect above all other gifts.<\/p>\n
Not sure what to talk about with Mom? What matters is sincerity and authenticity. Mom wants to know what is happening day to day, and also what has been a joy to you. Adding in a thank you to Mom is a wonderful wrap-up to your conversation. That\u2019s it.<\/p>\n
In organizing, we often talk about letting go of excess to make space for what truly matters. Mother\u2019s Day is no different. Make time and space for what’s important to your Mom. She will truly appreciate this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
