I'm tired of getting Mom the same stuff for Mothers day every year...?

Question

What is the most creative, or unique thing you ever gave your Mom for Mother's Day?

Moms, what gift would you love to recieve this Mother's Day?

Answer 1

Here's something creative that will be appreciated and you will have fun doing:

Make up a crossword puzzle and have all the hints be personal inside moments and jokes that only you two would know about. Put it on a poster board and add some clipart and some pictures to it!

The crossword puzzle could be time consuming and a bit frustrating ... you could do the same idea with a WORDSEARCH or WORDFIND puzzle.

Put your computer skills to work! Use Excel, get clipart from Yahoo Images Search, copy them, and reformat them, use a gluestick to put on posterboard.

Use graph paper, and pictures from magazines if you are not as good on the computer, and it will give it a homemade feeling.

This is a really beautiful poem too!
Women have strengths that amaze us.
They carry children, they carry hardships, they carry burdens but they hold happiness, love and joy.
They smile when they want to scream.
They sing when they want to cry.
They cry when they are happy and laugh when they are nervous.
They fight for what they believe in.
They stand up for injustice.
They don't take "no" for an answer when they believe there is a better solution.
They go without new shoes so their children can have them.
They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.
They love unconditionally.
They cry when their children excel and cheer when their friends get awards.
They are happy when they hear about a birth or a new marriage. Their hearts break when a friend dies.
They have sorrow at the loss of a family member, yet they are strong when they think there is no strength left.
They know that a hug and a kiss can heal a broken heart.
Women come in all sizes, in all colors and shapes.
They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you to show how much they care about you.
The heart of a woman is what makes the world spin!
Women do more than just give birth.
They bring joy and hope.
They give compassion and ideals.
They give moral support to their family and friends.
Women have a lot to say and a lot to give.

Answer 2

I'm a Mom and I just always wanted to see my kids Happy.
Depends on the ages of the kids as far as gifts go. I love the creative things they made and the writing from the heart. If they framed the art work it looked great. When you make a gift yourself, it is received with more appreciation because Mom knows the time and love that went into the gift.

1st off is to fight this all the way and make sure everybody including the courts know your pregnant by this man, no judge will force you to stay away from the man who is going to be the father of your baby. I would get your fiancee to talk to his daughter explain that your pregnant and needs everybody support not to be stressed out as you may lose the baby if everything gets on top of you. She properly is being encouraged by her birth mum and either is getting threats or presents that never did before but these people have being getting into your step-daughter head, that should only be blame on those people not her, she has being brain washed. If you win the case Im sure things be different and you may return home where you belong, you will have to try extra hard to rebuild what you once had with your step-daughter and try to have happy home, but include her in the new baby like offering her the help to pick out a name, help do up the new baby bedroom, clothes shoppings and scans, this may help with bonding with new baby as well as yourself too. But otherwise if the birth mum didnt butt in everything be perfect for your family, she should have that order out on her not you, im sorry your in this pickle but i have no other advice, good luck with everything!

Answer 4

The most creative thing that I ever got my mom was a gift card to the local spa and a flower pot with her favorite flowers in it. Oh yeah and I made her breakfast in bed.

Answer 5

All moms would like a day off! Get her a gift card to a spa.

Answer 6

for my moms birthday i made her a photo slideshow with a program i found on my computer called windows movie maker...all you need to do is scan your photos onto the computer and then you can open them up with that program, put them in an order, and add transitions or text to the pictures. you can also add music into the slideshow which is what i did. its really great b/c its totally free, your whole family will love it, and it is no where near as difficult as it may seem


this year for mother's day i found this site - www.stamps.com all i did was choose a cute picture of me and my family on my computer and the company will make a sheet of postage stamps with the picture on it! they make the stamps big enough for you to see the picture, its not to expensive, and they made it very simple!

i hope this helped you! good luck!

Answer 7

A letter from the heart. One that expresses sincerity and appreciation for everything that we as mothers do. Back it up by offering to do the chores for the day. Things that she does behind the scene that she may never seem to get acknowledgement for doing.

Answer 8

Instead of 'buying' her something like every year
why don't you 'make' her something this year
anything like a handbag or you can try more advanced items if you're excellent in crafts
even a simple hand made greeting card would do the job =)
so try making her something she would be pretty impressed
good luck =)

Answer 9

An Afgans and a personalized jewerly braclet with all the kids names on it. Frames, Albums & Plaques work as well if your willing to finish it in a day.

Answer 10

personally, i don't want anything but when my mom was alive i would offer her my services. we would go to the nursery and i would plant her a small flower garden or i'd get her a new rose bush and plant that. she had everything she could want or need but there was a lot she couldn't physically do so i'd do it for her.
