Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 8 is set aside to show mothers our love and appreciation. Instead of purchasing a generic card, try a few of these creative ways to say thank you:
Start Mom’s special day off with a healthy breakfast in bed:
- Orange juice
- 12-grain toast with raspberry preserves
- Eggs
- Deli ham
- Coffee
After she’s finished her excellent meal, continue the pampering by preparing a bath with salts, candles, relaxing music, and her favorite book or magazine. Be sure to give her a small basket with her favorite scented lotions.
Create a personalized Mother’s Day card with a family photo and heartfelt note. Shutterfly and Tiny Prints are two websites that can help!
Touching on the creative side, purchase some colorful canvas and paint. Make a lasting memory with a collage of the family’s handprints. Mom will treasure this masterpiece forever. (more…)
