Mother's Day is nearly here.
What ideas do you all have for your mother or wife?
How about ideas to help out your kids for their mom?
I'm looking for creative ideas; more than just flowers, dinner, breakfast in bed, etc.. |

I got my wife a membership in a wine of the month club. Had to think of something different because when you add up bdays, valentine's day, mother's day, xmas, etc, etc it is tough to be original. I think she will really dig this one.

I just got Jeff's mom some flowers that I arranged myself in a vase and put in our spare bedroom for her when she gets here tonight.
I am not a mom, so I don't get any presents, but if I did, that wine or book of the month club would be great! Anything but flower of the month.

Get her something from Victoria Secret....that would always go over well. A new perfume, a new bra, some matching panties or some cute lingerie.
I'm not a mom either but if I was...the wine of the month club thing sounds perfect to me. | |

With the "special" attachments, she may never invite you back to bed. | |
