Well I like and respect the thought of yours @oldtimer. As it should not be only in a day or on any special occasion that we should show how much we care towards someone it should be always and all times.
while I do have to say the person who we love are our mothers in many times it does not happen that we say or express our feelings towards her , in my opinion we should and let her know that how much she is special to us.While some people are not that lucky to have the most precious gift .
Happy Mother's Day.
