    The question was what are you getting her...so I answered it, it didn't say AMERICANS what are you getting lol

    Cemetary flowers.....

    I'm very sorry to hear. Every year the Saturday before we put flowers on my Grandmother's grave...I like to think that they make her smile and she does get them.

    Then you neglected to say what you GOT her.


    Side note: People always have to be annoying.

    I know I sound evil and my be blasted by the "what? but she gave you life!" people but if I got her something for Mother's Day I'd actually have to see her and talk to her. I'll pass.

    i agree with this on my own mom, but for my mother-in-LAW, I'm doing a scrapbook page frame. It will have idividual cut-out pics of her, my dad in law, two sis in laws, myself, hubby, surrounding a group pic of us. :)

    My momma and I both have a pandora bracelet, so I plan to get her a charm for that day!

    This won't help at all, haha but I quit my job so I can't spend much anyway, so I'm getting her flowers and making her a chocolate chip cookie cake. (her favorite.)

    My mother-in-law has recently lost a fair bit of weight and mentioned none of her trousers fit... I would have NO idea what to select for her, so we are thinking of a gift voucher. As for my own mum, will probably organise to have some native Australian flowers delivered... and a phone call.

    I'm sorry for your loss. That is what I'll be getting my daddy this year, for Father's Day. =(


    I was born just before midnight May 11, 1957, Mother's Day was a few minutes after I arrived. My mom has always told me that I'm the best Mother's Day present she ever got. I live thousands of miles from her and the rest of my family now. I wish I could just be there to hug her. That would make both our Mother's Day!

    I got mine a humorous card that my 7 year old somehow already stained with her blueberries. Hopefully I will remember to mail it. I am amazed I've gone to the trouble to do this much to be honest.

    My sympathies to those who have lost their Mom. My Mom passed 8 years ago and Mother's Day is still really hard on me. Folks, never underestimate the value of just simply time spent with your Mom, if you are able. My Mom never really wanted gifts, so Dad and I always just took her out to eat. Dad is gone, too, and those memories of all those dinners with them are still with me. Happy Mother's Day, everyone! Hope you are able to enjoy some good quality time with your Mom or someone who is able to fulfill that role in your life.

    My husband is on a business trip that weekend so my mom is coming over and we're having a girly sleepover weekend. I am baking her favorite cake (a very small one so I can't overindluge) and we'll do mani/pedis and watch Ab Fab.

    My family is more about quality time than material gifts, but I may get her a little something. She just got a new iPhone so maybe a cute cover for it.
