Celebrate Mother's Day

It's hard to believe that Mother's Day is just around the corner. It seems like only yesterday that I was cleaning up all the dirty champagne glasses from New Year's Eve. After the parade of April holidays, it will be that time of year again when we celebrate our wonderful moms! So, how will you mark the occasion? You could buy your mom a nice box of chocolates. She will love you for it at first, but then curse you after her weigh-in at Weight Watchers. You could take her out to dinner, but she may insist on the early-bird special, and you will find yourself eating dinner at 3:30 in the afternoon. It's doubtful that she will go in for matching tattoos. Ditto on noserings. She still hasn't had her ears pierced and she's 83. All a mom ever really wants is to spend some quality time with her children and maybe some nice Mothers Day Flowers. At some point in time, it's really the simple things that matter most to moms. If she really wanted jewelry, she would buy it for herself and although, she may love the grandkids, she really doesn't want to spend a week with them at Disney world. So, keep it simple and affordable and send her some flowers. She will not only thank you for it, but she will spend all day showing them off to her friends, bragging about what a great daugther/son you are. So, before you drive yourself crazy trying to figure out what she wants, get her some flowers. I promise you, she will love you for it. I should know......I'm a mom!
