Mothers Day is just around the corner….This holiday still stings a little. Not really sure why either because my Mom hated getting gifts. She would always say, “Send me a hydrangea or a gift card to get my hair done.” Honestly now I just wish I would of done what she asked instead of tried to do otherwise. That was what she wanted, but I always thought I needed to be creative. Truth is, my mom was stupid simple! Like ridiculously simple and I don’t think I ever honored that because….well….I am not! That is the truth. Now I wish I would have just relished in her simplicity and then it would have alleviated so much stress! Learn from me!
Today I am here to help those of you whose moms might be like me….not simple….does not make them good or bad, just makes them someone who is hard to buy for. It is very ironic for me to write that. Why? Because I use to think my mom was hard to buy for and that was because I was too selfish not to see she was really simple and wanted just what she asked for… a phone call, a card, and time. That is all…..nothing big, unique, spectactular, or god forbid something she would have to dust! That makes me giggle but it is so true! So today I am bringing ideas to you especially if your mom is like me and likes thought out gifts. If she is not get her, her favorite flower, a card, a phone call, a framed picture, a gift card for a mani/pedi, or her hair. She will love it! Trust me…..but most importantly if you can, give her the gift of your presence. I so wish I could.
