She's been your parent, your teacher, your confidante, your best friend. And with Mother's Day coming up on May 9, it's time to show her what she means to you.

Yes, we've heard all about how every day should be Mother's Day and how once a year is not enough to shower the woman who has borne and bred you with love and affection.

But the fact remains that it's a universal occasion, a day devoted exclusively to moms across the world. And whether you have a special celebration lined up or not, we want to hear about your mother and you.

So tell us a special story -- a memory that is very dear to your heart because of something unforgettable that she did for you, in the way that mothers often do. That one incident that reaffirmed your belief in your parent's ultimate sacrifice.

Simply write in to getahead@rediff.co.in (subject line: 'My mother's sacrifice'), because we'll be publishing the best entries right here on rediff.com

And if you can, do send in a photograph of you and your mom to publish alongside your story!

What better way of showing your mom how much you love her this Mother's Day?
