Honestly, i would recommend exactly what the person above me just said. It says alot without saying anything. Your mom will appreciate it. Coming home to a clean quiet house where she can relax would help out tremendous.

Well the best thing for you to do is help out as much as you can. For example, try to have everything done that she usually does when she gets home from work. for example, if the first thing she does is starts cooking dinner, be a step ahead of her and say you got dinner covered for you and your siblings. If you know she is just going to want to get in the bed, have it already made up. If you know she is going to clean up the house, already have it taken care of. take a little less work out of her daily routine so she has more time to relax. I'm a mom and sometimes I just want a little time to myself, which is ok...sometimes we all just needed a little "me time". Even if it just an hour to herself a day. Give her that more often. try to keep brothers and sisters occupied in another room doing something QUIET...like a movie or take them to the playground or something....It will surprise her and she will appreciate it...And let her know that you see she's been working extra hard lately and you want to help out. She will LOVE you so much for that!!!!!!!!

(1) Fix dinner for her or if you have the money, take her out for a nice dinner
(2) Give her some weekly manicures
(3) Give her some weekly back rubs, including scalp massages, & neck massages
(4) Clean house & do laundry for her & tell her it's her day(s) off
(5) If she reads, buy her a good book, so she can relax
(6) Go to the Bath & Body store & buy her some goodies for relaxing baths, etc.
(7) Give her a gift certificate to a spa or hair salon
You're a great daughter for being so thoughtful of your mom.

Pray for your mom. GOD hears children's prayers. You
seem to have a good heart, just be there for your mom.
When she needs to talk just listen, your comfort and prayers
will do more for her than you will ever know :)
