Ideas for gifts for Mother’s Day
My sister called me and asked me for some ideas on what to get her mother-in-law for a mother’s day gift. I told her that I think it would be really nice if she sent her a gift card to her favorite restaurant and a nice vase of flowers. I think that she was a little bit disappointed with my response because she tends to expect me to come up with very creative and crafty ideas for things. But I really don’t know her mother-in-law well enough to be able to suggest a particular clever and crafty thing to give her! And there is one thing I know for sure, most women LOVE flowers.
I suggested that she buy the “Pearls of Wisdom” gardenia potted plant from the 1800flowers.com website. I like the idea that it symbolizes the fact that she gives good advice! And gardenias smell so pretty that I’m sure she would love it! And, being a potted plant, it will continue to grow instead of wither and die. I think you can’t go wrong with that!
Or something exotic looking like the Martha Stewart coral azalea topiary plant! Whenever I see something like that it makes me think of the Alice in Wonderland story; it is simply fantastic looking!
