Jewelry is always good.  It doesn't have to be elaborate (c'mon...it's Easter we're talking about here).  Or how about a nice Easter lilly w/a great card.  Romantic cards go a long way w/women.\n\nMaybe a flower pot, seeds, gardening gloves for her & the grand daughter to plant things together???\n\nBottle of wine & some nice wine glasses???\n\nFlowers w/a nice vase (& the card....don't foget the card...lol)\n\nScented candles & relaxation bubble bath???\n\nDVD set of her favorite TV show???\n\nHope some of this helps...good luck & Happy Easter.

The Color of the Wreath\nGreen is the Liturgical Color that expresses Hope in God. The boughs of the fir tree are always green in every season of the year. These evergreen boughs which form the wreath remind us that God and His Revelation are unchanging even as the fir tree is ever green.\nThe ribbons have the Liturgical Colors of the Advent Season. Violet symbolizes a time of penance and preparation. Rose symbolizes pending jubilation and joy

you can go to your town hall and ask to  see their record books on your home , then look  up  any names you get at your local library  from  obits,  have your home blessed , put up some crosses,  and ask the presence to  leave and go to the light and  God, as well as consult a psychic if you still feel it.good luck !

A small intimate wedding in the springtime is what I would choose. Since I am not you that is your decision's. I choose small and intimate because I would rather have my closest friends and family there than alot of people that I really don't talk to. As to the flowers that is definitely a personal preference.

I have a very pretty angel that my mom in law bought at Canadian Tire. She actually matches the decor in both my living room and my family room. She's like a porcelain doll and I'm still warming up to her .That's about as matchy matchy to the decor as I get because everything else on my tree has a story.  I have ornaments from both my grandmothers trees, my parents and things that I've made or collected. I even do still have the angel from my childhood tree and am thinking of incorporating her into a wreath. She's very early 1970's with a "homespun" dress and yarn hair.

That sounds like a thoughtful alternative.\nWhen my dad died, we received so many flowers, cards, and fruit baskets (oh my, the fruit flies were horrible!).\n\nMy mom was a widow with three minor kids, and she appreciated the people that volunteered to watch us while she made arrangements, or the meals that were prepared so she didn't have to worry about it, and the ladies from church who came over and cleaned our house up a bit.  If geographical restrictions aren't an issue and she is your mother-in-law, maybe you could send a fruit basket or gift basket, but also volunteer your time or talents.  Just a thought...

Get her a baby outfit and a sonogram pic from the internet.  Just when your mom is about to pass out say PSYCH! And give her what you really got her...one of those $9.99 mug and mini tea-bag sets from Walmart (the ones with the little winter scenes on the mugs).

A friend emailed this to me the other day. I thought it was very touching and a beautiful tribute. Don't know if this helps but maybe someone will like it with Mothers Day coming up soon.\n\n MOTHER\n>\n> This is a truly BEAUTIFUL piece please\n> read this at a slow pace, digesting every word and in\n> leisure...do not hurry....this is a treasure...\n>\n> For those lucky to still be blessed with your Mom,\n> this is beautiful. For those of us who aren't, this is\n> even more beautiful. For those who are moms, you'll love this.\n>\n> The young mother set her foot on the path of life. "Is\n> this the long way?" she asked.   And the guide said:  "Yes, and the way is\nhard.\n> And you will be old before you reach the end of it. But\n> the end  will be better than the beginning."\n>\n> But the young mother was happy, and she would not\n> believe that  anything could be better than these years. So she\n> played with her children, and gathered flowers for\n> them along the way, and bathed them in the clear streams; and\n> the sun shone on them, and the young Mother cried,\n> "Nothing will ever be lovelier than this."\n>\n> Then the night came, and the storm, and the path was\n> dark, and the children shook with fear and cold, and the mother\n> drew them close and covered them with her mantle, and the children said,\n> "Mother, we are not afraid, for you are near, and no harm can come."\n>\n> And the morning came, and there was a hill ahead, and\n> the children climbed and grew weary, and the mother was weary.\n> But at all times she said to the children," A little  patience and we are\nthere."\n> So the children climbed, and when they reached the top\n> they said, "Mother, we would not have done it without you."\n>\n> And the mother, when she lay down at night looked up\n> at the stars and said, "This is a better day than the last, for my\n> children have learned fortitude in the face of hardness. Yesterday I gave\nthem courage.\n> Today, I've given them strength."\n>\n> And the next day came strange clouds which darkened\n> the earth, clouds of war and hate and evil, and the children groped\n> and stumbled, and the mother said: "Look up. Lift your eyes to the light.\n> " And the children looked and saw above the clouds\n> an everlasting glory, and it guided them beyond the\n> darkness. And that night the Mother said,\n> "This is the best day of all, for\n> I have shown my children God."\n>\n> And the days went on, and the weeks and the months and\n> the years, and\n> the mother grew old and she was little and bent.\n> But her children were tall and strong, and walked with\n> courage.  And when the way was rough, they lifted her,\n> for she was as light as a feather; and at last they came to a hill,\n> and beyond they could see a shining road and golden gates flung wide. And\n> mother said, "I have reached the end of my journey. And now I know the end\n> is better than the beginning, for my children can\n> walk alone, and their children after them."\n>\n> And the children said, "You will always walk with us,\n> Mother, even when you have gone\n> through the gates."\n> And they stood  and  watched her as she went on alone, and the gates\n> closed after her.  And they said: "We cannot see her\n> but she is with us still. A Mother like ours is more than a memory.  She\n> is a living presence......."\n>\n> Your Mother is always with you.... She's the whisper\n> of the leaves as you walk down the street; she's the smell of bleach\n> in your freshly laundered socks; she's the cool hand\n> on your brow when\n> you're not well. Your Mother lives\n> inside your laughter. And she's

Bury her under a tree in your back yard.  Plant some flowers over her grave and they will florish.  When the flowers bloom each year (make sure they're annuals), you will be reminded of Lizzie.  Do it, man.
