1. 谢谢您。

"Thank you."

无论你说多少次感谢，母亲也愿意听。她怀着你的时候长达9个月的时间都不能沾酒精和咖啡因。这一牺牲就足以让你说无数声感谢。

No matter how often you're saying this, she could probably stand to hear a few more. She carried you, and grew you in her belly for nine months — all while resisting alcohol and caffeine. That's a sacrifice that warrants endless thank-yous, friends.

2.您是我的英雄。

"You're my hero."

因为母亲就是英雄。你的出色都是因为她，所以她配得上这一称号。

Because she is, right? I mean, the main reason you're as awesome as you are is because of her, so she's earned the title.

3. 记得我小时候发生的事吗？

"Remember when I was little and.... ?"

回忆一下母亲曾经帮你解决过的困难。这将让她想起过去你是多么依赖她，而且以后在某些方面很可能也会一直依赖她。

Reminisce about a moment when you struggled with something and your mom came to the rescue. It'll be a nice way to remind her how you've always depended on her, and in some ways, probably always will.

4.我需要您的建议。

"I need your advice."

无论你多大，你的母亲永远不会厌倦给你建议。你越自立，你向她寻求建议就越让她感到高兴。让她感觉自己被需要。

It doesn't matter how old you are — your mom will never tire of giving you her advice. And the more self-sufficient you become, the more she'll appreciate that you came to her at all. Make her feel needed.

5.我为您感到骄傲。

"I'm proud of you."

这句话不是只能父母对孩子说。孩子也应该对父母说。作为人类，我们一辈子都不断在成长。如果告诉母亲你注意到她对某件事付出的努力，而且认为她做的很棒，她会很开心。

This is not a statement that should only go from parents to kids. It should go both ways! We never stop evolving as humans, so your mom would love to hear that you've noticed the hard work she's put in on a project, and that you think she did a kick-ass job.

6. 您值得拥有最好的。

"You deserve the best."

在你带母亲去泡温泉或一起玩之前说这句话。因为她的确值得拥有最好的。

Say this right before you treat her to a spa day or any kind of bonding activity. Because she does deserve the best.

7.您真美。

"You are beautiful."

你应该具体地称赞母亲的美貌。我们生活的这个社会只欣赏特定年龄的美，这是愚蠢的，因为每个女人，包括你的母亲，都各有各的美，应该有人提醒她们这一点。

Celebrate your mom's beauty by giving her specific compliments. We live in a society that only appreciates beauty of a certain age, which is bonkers because every woman alive — and that includes your mom — is beautiful in their own way, and should be reminded of that on the reg.

8.我爱您。

"I love you."

即使你每天都说这句话，甚至两秒前刚刚说过，你也可以再说一遍。因为这是妈妈永远听不腻的话。

It doesn't matter if you say it every day, or even if you just said it two seconds ago. Say it again. Because she will never get sick of hearing it.
