I want to send my Mom a Mother's Day card but......?

Last week I finally got up the courage to tell my Mom a couple of things that had been hindering our relationship and she is not one to take any kind of conflict or honesty well. She is one to tell you what you want to hear just to avoid a conflict. But I had to be honest with her and I was kind, respectful, considerate, but very clear. Since then (this was last Thursday) she has not spoken to me. She actually has had no response to me as I wrote her a letter. I know that talking is more personal, but I am better at expressing myself through writing than I am talking. Truth be told I have tried multiple times to have a one on one conversation with no success because she refused to hear what I had to say or she would change the subject.



Anyhow, I love my Mom and I don't want this to be a huge rift between us, but how do I send her a Mother's Day card without making it seem uncomfortable? She still has yet to talk to me but I don't want that to stop me from sending her a card.

send her the card to let her know you still love and care about her.
Reply:Not buts about it. Send her one simply saying I love you. Family is more important than anything else in the world! Friends can fall by the wayside but family you can always count on. Some people have a difficult time expressing themself verbally. Your mother probably knows this. It never hurts to say "I'm sorry" to attempt to make amends for whatever she feels you did.

Good Luck
Reply:Easy as pie, buy one that says how you feel, and send it in the mail! Maybe include another letter in it, regarding the fight, and tell her that you didn't want to hurt her feelings, but you were feeling hurt. You want to talk with her, because you love her dearly, but needed to get things off your chest. Good luck!
Reply:Just send her a card. Don't mention in the card anything about your letter/conversation.
