Your mom, either biological or a mother figure, plays a major role in your upbringing. If it weren’t for the way she raised you, you wouldn’t be in the situation you are in today. So, this Valentine’s Day, show your appreciation for her through a bright bouquet of flowers. Specifically, give her a bouquet of red and pink carnations, which are the closest thing to traditional flowers for mothers; red carnations signify admiration while pink ones represent love and gratitude.

A sister. No doubt you have one of these, whether she is your biological sibling or a sister from another mother. Either way, don’t forget to show appreciation for the girl who is always with you through ups and downs and when boys come and go. This Valentine’s Day, give her a bouquet of daffodils, which represent fondness and, well, forgiveness. Because sisters always get on each other’s nerves, but still stand by each other no matter what.
