i would recommend your time and love its not about whats physical give her a day of rest. If money is an obstacle just tell her how much she means to you and make her feel like the queen for a day every mother deserves it!

I would get her some cds of a band she likes and then make something like a family tree to make her feel important- my parents did that for me when I was 12 and since I have made one for my children for when they turn 12- also, electronics are ruling the scences today. Dolls, .....

well just think if u were a mom, u would want something personal right? make her a craft or something made from u not pre-made, remember its the thought that counts and most moms like personilized gifts mroe than bought gifts. It shows them u care about them so much u went through all the trouble of making something for them and u put love into it and as u know thats the best gift of all.

Gift certificate sounds good or just give her money.  I also like the idea of buying her a cd of her fav artist or a nice outfit or shoes she might like.

Bring wine for the father and get something else for the mom like a box of chocolates or something.  Nothing too personal but a token gift. If you bring flowers for the mom, she'll be charmed.

make something, moms love that.  if it shows pictures of when you were growing up, she would cherish it, or if it had something words even to help her relive a moment you  too had together when ou were younger, or even to be able to relive the moment she gets her gift from you, she would love it.

It all depends on the model of your pc and also the age. If it is old the chances of getting a good price are slim, even if it is in good condition. Advertise it on your local radio station or why not try eBay.

My church hands out single red roses to the women. you could give every mom a simple pretty flower or dishtowels or something like that. chocolate, the like. Flowers are a good cheap gift. you could even buy small potted flowers, just shop a bit, see what looks good.

It sounds as though your mom likes to have fun... so find a new way for her to enjoy life. Drive down to see her cause I am sure that would be the best gift of all.

I say porn is always a nice gift, but since this is your sis in law I wouldn't try it. I think one of the most thoughtful gifts is to get her a gift certificate to her favorite restaurant, just call them up and have them send it to her address.

You mother may like to spend time with you.....can you take her to lunch?.......and get her a small pin or earrings (if she has pierced ears).\n\nMost of all get her a beautiful card....or make one.....just to show your love.\n\n......My mom passed 4 years ago at 88....and she was the best!

Try not to get too personal, it might scare her off. A gift certificate is kind of crude, it's basically the same as cash. Maybe a nice dinner, some flowers (not too extravagant, but not something you'd get your mother either), and a small gift.\n\nIdeas: teddy bear, chocolates, a spa-type gift basket with stuff she can pamper herself with (most drug stores sell those at a reasonable price), or something practical that pertains to her life like a travel mug with a gift certificate from her fave coffee shop or with a bag of good coffee. \n\nThings to avoid: lingerie, jewellry, pets, cash, books and/or music (until you know her tastes really well), blank journals, clothes, poems or songs (until at least 6 months) etc. \n\nGL!

Going out to eat, vases of flowers or containers of live plants, candy or bath items seem to be the most popular gifts to give Mom - but is it because she really loves them, or because you don't know what else to give on Mother's Day?\n\nTake a hint from other gift giving occasions and don't get stuck in a rut.\n\nGive a gift of time for Mother's Day. Make a promise and keep it, to spend a day with your mother, doing whatever she enjoys, whether that's baking, garage saling or sky diving! Let it be her day, and let her choose which day it is, within reason.\n\nA busy mother often lacks time for herself. She dreams about being able to take walks alone, stay in the shower more than 2 minutes and finish the book she started when you were born! Giving the gift of time isn't so hard. What it means is that you take over some chores or a day's worth of chores or watch younger siblings to allow her to do whatever she wants to do.\n\nShe doesn't need to go anywhere (unless she wants to), or do anything special... just whatever she wants to do.\n\nA clean house! This is another "take over the chores" type of gift, but with a twist. Having a clean house makes anyone feel good, so give a hand made gift certificate for cleaning time at her request. Make eight (or however many hours' worth you want to give) boxes on the certificate (or individual certificates) and in each one write "1 Hour." She can choose whether she wants an hour a day for eight days, a full day's work, or an hour or two here and there. What could make a homemaker happier?\n\nYou can do a one time job for her, like cleaning out a storage shed or washing and waxing her car. Washing windows on the house, or doing other heavy house cleaning are other possibilities.
