Mother’s Day. What kind of presents do you like to receive? What types of gifts have you given to your own mother or mother-in-law on that day? For me, Mother’s Day gifts tend to be flowers.
We get hanging baskets for my mother-in-law so she can watch the humming birds that visit them each day. We get some type of potted plant for my mother, and last year my husband took the kids and picked out a few hanging baskets for me, as well.
Are you looking for something different this year? Maybe something more personal?
How about custom shirts from CafePress? You could have all the chidren’s names put on a t-shirt for grandma. Or maybe you’d like one for yourself! CafePress is the world’s premier customization site. Customized t-shirt just not what you are looking for? They also have a wide range of other products available for customization, including coffee mugs, wall art, tote bags, and stationary products.
Know someone who will be celebrating their first Mother’s Day this year as a mother? Surprise her with a cute baby clothes or custom baby onesies. After all, onesies are super cute and so easy to dress baby in!
Now, moms, I’d love to know, what Mother’s Day gift would you love to receive?

I would like a morning that starts off with coffee, breakfast in bed with the paper. Then the entire day off – no childcare, no cooking and certainly no laundry. A girl can always dream…….
OneMommy says
A day off? What’s that???? 🙂 Yes, a girl can always dream!

Every mother’s day my hubs has bought me an eversave/groupon for cleaning the house… and so far, EVERY SINGLE ONE of them totally failed at coming through and we got our money back. Is this a sign? I HATE cleaning and would LOVE my house cleaned by someone else…
OneMommy says
Oh no! Seriously??? That does seem to be some kind of sign….
I’d love for someone to come in and organize our stuff and tell me the best place to put things so it wouldn’t be such a mess.

Last Mothers’ Day I had only been a mom for two weeks, so my husband didn’t do much for me (and my baby didn’t do anything!) because we were still in survival mode. But this year, I’d like a necklace of my son’s fingerprint. I’ve seen some before and it’s really subtle and beautiful.
OneMommy says
In all honesty, last year was the first year my husband thought to get me something — because I guilted him! 🙂
I love the idea of a fingerprint necklace!
Happy Mother’s Day!
