Thoughtful Gifts for Mom on Mother’s Day

All mothers are working mothers. ~Author Unknown

When I was growing up there was a definite range of attitudes towards Mother’s Day. At one end of the continuum, the day was considered a sentimental bid from the card companies for our hard earned dollars. At the other end of the continuum Mom was served breakfast in bed, and swamped with cards and little items. Then Mom went back to being Mom, doing everything for everybody.

As a mother myself, I really appreciate being recognized on this day, although I hope the same level of respect and interest exists throughout the whole year! And I’d like to receive a little something too. Here are some of the many items from iCraft that will interest all the mothers you know: your own mother, a special mother in your life, expectant mothers, grandmothers, the list goes on. And don’t forget you as a mother who deserves a treat on a special day. You can use these suggestions for gifts to get yourself, or as broad and not so subtle hints for the children.

The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before.
The woman existed, but the mother, never.
A mother is something absolutely new. ~Rajneesh

Your Mom was a freestanding individual before you existed. Honour your mother or grandmother or even great grandmother if you are lucky enough to have one around. Ask them what it was like when they were kids. Ask them for their stories.

May you and all the Moms you know enjoy this Mother’s Day!
