mom/Mom

Happy Mother's Day, mom/Mom

Should it be mom or Mom?

I usually see it upper case and sometimes in lower case.

Many thanks

When you're addressing her, I would say "Mom," just like you'd say "Peter" or "Wanda."

Sorry - this took half an hour for me to hit post. By then Yankee has answered already.
