Whether you realize it or not, your partner’s mom is still one of the most important people in their lives (in most cases). This is a woman that raised them and protected them, so it’s no wonder that their mom is someone they feel should be respected and revered.
So, if you want to show your partner that you love them, there are a number of ways to honor their mom:
• Find a recipe from their mom and learn how to make it JUST the way that mom did – This might take special lessons from their mom, but that will be even more touching to your partner.
• Have their mom give them their recipe book to copy and try on your own.
• Have mom over often to show her that you love her just as much as your partner does.
• Always remember mother’s day for her too.
• Always remember her birthday.
• If you have a question about something that she knows a lot about, call her up and ask her for the answer.
• Ask your partner about their mom – What was she like when you were growing up? What are some stories about her?
When you take the time to show that you genuinely care about your partner’s mother, you allow them to see that you love everything about them – and especially where they came from. You might even want to write their mom a little thank you note for raising and giving birth to such a wonderful person.
