Call your mom on a regular basis. It may seem like a trivial thing, but most moms like to hear from their kids. Tell her what is going in your life, how your mate or children are doing, a funny thing you heard in the news or any other thing you can think of.

Send your mom flowers, just because. Have them delivered to her door or work place, or deliver them yourself.

Touch your mother in the way she needs, speak to her in the language she understands. My mother would have scoffed at flowers and lectured me on the money I wasted. I love flowers and they are always unexpected. My mother never told us she loved us and never hugged us. I love to be told and hugged. I told and hugged my son a lot. Once I thanked my mother for all she had done for me and my brother and sisters. I listed everything I was thankful for. That's a language we could both understand as mothers. I am a warm mother/she was cold. My son is healthy and living his own life well/ I have been in therapy for 40 years and just now am redefining myself as good and worthy. As crazy as it is we both loved our children but spoke in different languages of love based in part on our woundedness. My faith in Jesus changed me and my capacity to forgive, to love with maturity and to draw a line in the sand that said no more abuse. Now my grandson and son are living much healthier lives because I said no more.
