Why mothers day matters
Mothers Day celebrates the women who nurture us
Mothers Day is a time to thank the mothers, grandmothers and caregivers who shape our lives. For many, Nan is the mother figure who stepped in when needed most.
A song captures those quiet acts of love: the Sunday shoe polishing, the triangular jam sandwiches: and turns them into a lasting tribute that can be replayed year after year.

Every Sunday ritual
Polished school shoes on a quiet Sunday night: it shows her care.
Her signature snack

What their grandchild told us
A Mother's Day song for my nan Peggy, who raised me when my mum couldn't. She never made it feel like a favour, just made it feel like home: school shoes polished on Sunday nights, jam sandwiches cut in triangles because 'they taste better'. She's the mother in my Mother's Day and it's time the day knew it.

Read the lyrics: Home in Her HandsAcoustic · Warm female vocals · Mothers Day
Verse 1
Sunday nights the polish came outLittle brush and an old soft clothPeggy shining my school shoes upSetting them by the door for bothNever once did she make it feelLike a favour, like a debt to payJust called it Tuesday, called it homeCalled it love in her own quiet way
Verse 2
Jam sandwiches cut into trianglesShe said that's just how they taste bestI believed her, still believe her nowSome kind of magic in that breadWhen my own mother couldn't stayPeggy stayed, and that was thatNo big speeches, just a kettle onAnd a hand that patted the seat
Chorus
So this one's for you, PeggyThis whole day belongs to youEvery card that says "for mother"Every word of it rings trueYou're the one who did the raisingYou're the one who saw me throughSo Mother's Day, take a good lookIt's Peggy, it was always Peggy, it's you
Verse 3
Other kids had different morningsI had you, and I had enoughShoes lined up like little soldiersSandwiches cut with all that loveYou never asked for any creditNever called yourself second bestBut I've been counting all these yearsAnd Peggy, you passed every test
Bridge
So I'm saying it out loud nowNot just quiet, in my headYou were mother when it matteredYou're the reason I was fed, and warm, and safe, and dressedFor church, for school, for life itselfI hope you know, I hope you've always known
Chorus
This one's for you, PeggyEvery ounce of this todayYou're the one who did the raisingCome what may, and come what maySo Mother's Day, look a little closerSome homes are made a different wayAnd Peggy, love, you made mine perfectHappy Mother's Day
Outro
Triangles and polished shoesA kind of love that never asked for praiseHappy Mother's Day, PeggyEvery single one of your days
Peggy's song was built from polished shoes, jam sandwiches and the love that made every day feel like home.
