Grateful for my mom via /r/gratitude

I just bought my mom a small gift consisting of a candle, chocolate a card (written) and some vitamins. My mom is such a hard worker and she has sacrificed a lot since the passing of my dad (her husband). I’ve always appreciated her but she always thought I didn’t. Today was the day I felt to gift her with something special and her favorite part of the gift was my written note to her, expressing how grateful I am for her to be my mother. I’m not an affectionate person whatsoever so you can imagine that 😅 but I love her so much and thankful to God that she has blessed me with a woman of valor like my mother
