Mothers day 2010 is on May 9. Youve probably started looking for gifts for your mom and are just adding up what you can afford to spend and figuring out plans to make the day extra special. While you may have the whole breakfast in bed routine in mind and a vague idea of what gift youre buying youre mom, youve probably done one or both of two terrible thing; youve either neglected to buy a mothers day card or you think you can buy one at the last minute because it isnt a big deal and you havent given a single thought to what youre going to write in it.
Buying the card
Dont wait until the last minute to buy youre mothers day card because when youre in a hurry youre highly unlikely to read whats printed in it. If you do try to read the printed message, you wont be able to choose which is best and just end up getting mom a card that may seem funny to you but somewhat annoying to her. If you want to find a funny card for your mom, start looking for one now and you may actually find one that you both can laugh at.
Writing the card
Writing the card does not mean that you sign your name in it. Youre giving her a mothers day card not your autograph. Think of something nice and appreciative to write. Talk about how she was a great mom to you or reference to a memorable incident. The card will be a sweet reminder of the day and women love getting acknowledged (she might even put it up on the fridge).
The Mothers day gift
Hopefully you arent going to succumb to buying her flowers (again). Buy her something she can enjoy like mothers day fruit baskets. Moms always love that kind of stuff and food gifts are generally very popular for mothers day. If you want something unique but affordable buy her a nice fruit bouquet. Shell love it because its made with all sorts of fruit and chocolate dipped strawberries and dipped pineapples. You can search for them online, the more popular ones are called Blooms Of Love, Peanut Butter Chocolate Bouquet and the Mother's Day Delicious Celebration Dipped Strawberries & Apples.
