Re: Mother's Day gift ideas

Some advice, FWIW, pay attention during the next year to things she likes, ideas she might mention, items she says she'd like but doesn't really want to buy. A year ago for Christmas, I "bought" for my husband two spots in (for me) a pricey fundraising golf tournament. A foundation we both support sponsors the annual tournament and it's at a higher class course, with all the extras. Boy, was he surprised when he opened the envelope with a fancy gift certificate inside. At that cost, I wouldn't do it every year, probably not even every five years, but I knew he would like it and he did. He could ask whomever he wanted to play with him. Our future son-in-law earned his way to that spot!

Re: Mother's Day gift ideas

Since I can't spend time with my mother since she's over 400 miles away I thought I'd give her one of those digital picture frames fully loaded with pics.

As for the wife, I'll let you know soon as I get one.

Re: Mother's Day gift ideas

From me, my mom gets a card; my wife gets #22.

It's a gift that's always appreciated....
