Gifts to spoil your mother
You say potato and I say potahto, you say tomato and I say tomahto. Potato, potahto, tomato, tomahto. But let’s not call the whole thing off. Despite how we may pronounce our words, and the dates we choose to celebrate certain occasions, one things for sure, the women who raised us and nurtured us deserve a day of celebration.
Mother’s Day is a special time of year that lends the perfect excuse to spoil those special women in our lives. The women who instill love, compassion and character. The ladies who choose to wear many hats so unselfishly to ensure that our life is filled with love, and to make sure we’ve got enough encouragement to keep us going. They’ve been the shoe-tier, the story-teller, the cook, the cleaner, the event planner and the chauffeur. They’ve been the heartbreak mender, the listener, the photographer and the cheerleader. And for those lucky enough, they’ve even become your best friend.
