- Start with a memory – Something small, like the way she handled a chaotic holiday dinner or helped your son through a tough patch.
- Speak from your role – Are you a mother-in-law, a father-in-law, or a sibling-like figure? Your angle matters.
- Add a compliment – Not generic, but real. “I admire how you always find a way to include everyone, even the quiet ones.”
- Close with love – A word, a phrase, a line that only your family uses. That inside warmth matters.
