Mother’s Day is that special day when we celebrate the important women in our lives, and thank them for their selfless love and unconditional support. Being a mother isn’t glamorous and we often forget that it’s a 24/7 job, 365 days a year. A mother is expected to be there, no matter what happens, because her family is counting on her love beyond circumstances.

But what if something happens and she’s left to pick up the pieces? It’s true, mothers are undercover superheroes; but there’s only so much a mother can do when faced with the heavy financial burden of losing a spouse.

Life Insurance, a Gift of Love

Mother's Day is an important reminder to review your financial protection. Life insurance is a gift of love for your family -- taking care of them if tragedy strikes.

The foundation of a strong financial plan is life insurance. Does your family have enough coverage to take care of mom and the kids, if something happens to dad? 

And what about Mom?  Losing her would be emotionally devastating to be sure; however, the financial loss would only add more distress to a family at an already difficult time. Most moms try to juggle a career while managing a family. So making sure that mom has a enough life insurance to cover her lost income is essential. 

And it's just as important for stay-at-home moms to be insured, a fact that some families overlook. Just think of the economic impact she makes for a family. Being a stay-at-home mom is a full-time job! Among her responsibilities might be serving as the "home manager," childcare provider, chef, tutor, shuttle driver, and much more. Those services would all come at an cost, if she were gone. 

A Gift of Peace of Mind

We love our Moms more than anything in this world, and they deserve the best. And because of the great love of a mother for her family, there is no better gift than the peace of mind provided by life insurance.

Perfume, flowers, jewelry are all great gifts, but this Mother’s Day celebrate her with a special gift, one that truly comes from the heart and gives her peace of mind --not only this year, now but for many years to come. Life insurance: an important and lasting way to show your love.
