Just some sugestions for Mother’s Day.

Take your mom/wife on a picnic. Pack a lunch. Take some special cheese, cut up some good quality apples, make some sandwiches: peanut butter and jelly for the kids, ham,chicken or turkey with tomato and nice green lettuce, a little of mayo,salt and pepper. Bring along a book of poetry or have kids write some verses for mom and give them to her. Don’t forget some fruit or brownies for dessert and bottled water on ice.
Make sure you do all the clean up.

For something to buy her…Is there something she wants for the house? Maybe a new area rug for thr foyer, a pair of matching lamps for the bedroom, for the family room?
I am getting rugs for my foyer, hall and steps!

Think, did she see some cute sweater she wanted or a special plant for outside? Get it for her now. Buy her that piece of jewelry she pointed out.

Take her and the kids to an outside movie in your community and afterwards go for ice cream.

If it’s still chilly, build her a fire and you and the kids give her a basket of her favorite magazines and let her read while you entertain the kids or put them to bed.

Make a Spa Basket for her:
Some new nail polish, emery boards,toe nail polish kit,soothing tea, an herb face scrub, and again, a book to read.

Does she love to garden?
Get her some gardening tools, her favorite plants, pretty gardening gloves, some special cream to soothe her hands.Place it all in a nice basket.

Does she love to draw? Buy her a sketch pad and some pencils or paint and of course, a book on sketching or painting.

Just start thinking for your own ideas. Think of what she likes or points out to you. Hey, ask the kids. Make this a very special Mother’s Day. I know you can do it.
