Bismillah,
Assalamualaykum..
Subhan'Allah...thats very kind of her...may Allah truly reward her Ameen!
We should always be kind to our Mothers' not just when they do something for us, but through out our lives, through thick and thin.
We should make her feel that we appreciate her every day....what a character Allah has bestowed upon women...Masha'Allah.
Well...thank her....and if she doesnt want to be reimbursed, then leave it as that because you wouldnt want to offend her, right?!
Buy her a nice gift Insha'Allah...
Remember, whomsoever is not thankful to people, is not thankful to Allah...so thank her and thank Allah for blessing you with her!
May Allah make your trip easy and bestow His Rehma in your house Ameen Ya Rabb!
May Allah cause all children to appreciate there parents, Ameen!
Wasalam
