Mother's Day Reflections and Suggestions

It’s almost May 12th ! ! All you mothers out there know what that means. Maybe your day will be a little different, when you’re recognized as the family’s “unsung hero”, or at least a day with less “grunt work” and a few moments of fun set aside with loved ones.

Yes, Mother’s Day is coming - - and I hear the echo (or is that a groan?) of “What, not already, - - how can it be Mother’s Day again?” from grown-up kids who now feel pressured into another “Hallmark moment”. To them and all the others that are looking forward to letting their mom know she is special, I say “Yes, Mother’s Day is almost here and the answer to your shopping needs is just a few computer keystrokes away!”

Your answer is Etsy, the site for so many reasonably priced - - but even more important - - unique gift ideas! Is your mom a collector of specific items (animal figurines, pretty note cards, cups and saucers, vintage stuff of all kinds)? Or maybe your mom delights in one of a kind jewelry that is chosen with her special color palette and style in mind.

All these things and more can be found at Etsy.com. Especially thoughtful gifts you can’t find at the local mall - - and from the comfort of your own home!

Mother’s Day thoughtfulness doesn’t have to be reserved just for your mom, but can include your wife, daughter, friend, or mentor. A perfect time to say “You’re special to me” with a thoughtful gift or card to that special woman who has made a difference in your life.
