The Perfect Mother’s Day Gift

I can’t believe how close it is to Mother’s Day. I still haven’t settled on an actual gift for my mom yet, but I do have my plans made. Hubby and I have decided this year we’re going to send flowers to both of our moms at work. I normally give my mom flowers, but I give her something potted that she can plant in her garden. Last year she loved the flowers, but she was kind of bummed because everyone else got deliveries at work, but she didn’t.

This year we’re going to take advantage of the mothers day gift delivery service from 1800flowers.com, and she’ll be happy to get something at work just like all the other moms!

Right now I’m just trying to narrow down what flowers I want to get her. I might get her the Blooming Love™ Azalea because not only is it pretty, but it’s something she can plant and enjoy. She has azaleas already on one side of her porch, but she’s mentioned wanting to plant more on the other side.

I have no idea what to get Hubby’s mom, so I’ll let him pick that out for her. That way it’s something special that comes from him. We’re also going to take them out to dinner on Mother’s Day, and that will be interesting because I honestly don’t think we’ve ever taken our moms to dinner together. They don’t really know each other, and I think the only time they’ve really talked was at our wedding!

I’m going to head back over to 1800flowers.com to look around. Who knows, I might find something else I like better than the azaleas for my mom. Now don’t you guys forget to buy something for your mom! If you’re the forgetful type, consider going ahead and ordering some flowers. 1800flowers offers up to 40% savings for ordering early!
