Top Five Gifts for Mom on Mother’s day!

Here are some very practical, very simple ideas that are guaranteed to make your mom or wife smile on Mother’s day!
  1. Make or buy Mom dinner or lunch. Give mom a break from the kitchen!

2. Pamper her! A massage, facial, or manicure. Anything to make her feel pretty and relaxed!

  • Mom will love a SPA Day; a runner up would be a Spa Kit. I love bath bombs or a good bath scrub!

3. Hire someone to clean for her! This is such a treat for mom to get a break from cleaning. I have four boys and the messes never end. I LOVE having someone clean for me every once in a while!

4. Give Mom some time alone! Every Mother’s Day, my husband gives me a couple of hours just myself. To nap, read, slowly sip my coffee (while it’s still hot) and just relax. With four little boys, that is such a precious GIFT! Once my kids are older and out of the house, this one might change to “time with everyone together!” I get to enjoy that most days, so a quiet break is a gift to me.

5. Homemade gifts or cards. Sweet hand-made cards from my boys are some of my most treasured possessions!

Other options that mom should love:

A plant or fresh flowers:

A pressure cooker for a mom that likes to cook (I love mine):

A great book – I want this one:

    Those are great ideas! We shop for flowers and plants at a garden store together and then plant them outside together. It’s our tradition and I love it!

    So good to see you today! I had this open on my browser to read! My boys are trying to talk dad into getting ‘me’ a kitten! But what I always ask for is family photos! But you know I wouldn’t say no to a massage 🙂
