Mother’s day is this Sunday and if you have a good relationship with you mom I assure you the best gift is time with you.  Here are some easy ways to spend time with mom on mother’s day that will make her feel special

  1. Older kids…Give her your time. Take mom out for a pedicure or lunch whatever she likes. More ideas are the park, a museum or the movies.
  2.  For moms with younger kids…Dad, let her have an afternoon or day off to do lunch or manicure with a friend. A coupon for this day is fine too but then stick to the commitment.
  3. Old or young helping around the house without being asked is always a great gift.  Even better do a chore that day but then add to it a coupon book for mom she can cash in for dinner or dishes, vacuuming and the like.
  4. Older kids take time to teach her something like a computer or iPhone.
  5. Make something unique, Pinterest is crammed full of neat ideas perfect for any age.
  6. Take older photos of the family and put them on CD or make a shutterfly book for her.
  7. Write her a note about anything you have found wonderful about her in your time together.
  8. If mom gardens take her to a greenhouse and let her pick out things for her garden.
