Hello all, This saturday will be Mother's Day. My colleague came to me today and ask if i am a mom, what kind of gift will i like to receive from my kids? I told her that i would love everything that my kids give me, i will be happy even just a phone call saying "happy Mother's Day, i love you, Mom". The reason she asked me is because my sign is the same as her mom's, she thought the thing i like, her mom will like. What a sweet girl! Now, what will you give your mom for Mother's Day? As i am working in other city and i can't go home that day. I might just give my mom a call. What about you? Please share. Thank you.

I think my child is still too little to understand the Mother's Day. I don't expect anything from him. His good behaviors is already the best gift for me:) I don't what is the best gift for my mom. I think we will go out and have a good time together and then have a good meal. I love China

Hi Youless, Thanks for responding my discussion. Don't worry, he will grow up day after day, and he will tell you how much he loves you when he grow up. As for your mom, it's a pretty good idea to eat out. But parents are always worry about things outside in the resturant is too expensiveHave a good time!

On mother's day, I will give my mom a bouquet of flowers, a love letter/a greeting card with the poem i composed,and of course a monetary gift.I know these wouldn't be enough and it would be simple things but I want her to feel important and special on that day.I asked someone to give those for me since I won't be with my mom personally on that day.But I will call her over the phone and tell her how much I appreciate her and love her.She deserves this because of her sacrifices and great love and understanding she gave me.

Hi Bren_Yrra, Thanks for responding my discussion. That's very sweet of you sending her card and flowers. I think all women love followers. Mother is the best people in the world, everything they do, they do it for their family!

Wow, I hope you are not going to give your mom a elephant as a gift, it is too big (smile). When I was teenages and live with my mother, I used to cook a sumptuous meal for her. I think something make by myself is much better to express my appreciation of mom than anything else. Now I leave my mom and study in another city. Actually, I still want to give her something made by myself like weave a shawl or draw a picture for her, but I do not have enough time. So I alos just give her a call and tell her how much I love her this year.

Hi Iceblade007, Thanks for responding my discussion. I am not sure where are you from, as i am from China, i don't hug and say i love you to my mom. i mean never, i might say it to her someday. I am just so shy to say that to her. Hug is not a problem for me.

This year i got my mom something she's been wanting for ages - a copy of Adobe Photoshop CS2. It's a legal copy PLEA is selling because they upgraded to CS4 and i got it for a really good price. I told my mom about it a while back and she was so excited - it should be here by friday or monday. My sister got my parents tickets to Rosebud Dinner theatre in Drumheller last year and some to something in edmonton this year. I dont know what my other two sisters are doing this year - usually they have the option to go with me for the gift and i didnt think to offer that this year. Lots of other years we do flowers (plants) and dinner and stuff. Last year we did a Sign for the end of our driveway with a cool logo and a flower box and plants underneath. We always do a mothers day family photo.

I'll give her something sweet (pie, cake, or fudge), paper flowers (from my daughter - I'll help her make them, of course; she's only 2), and a homemade card. :)

I think Mother's Day is on a Sunday. Anyway, I intend to take my mom shopping on that day and have her pick out what she wanted. My mom loves going out and looking at stuff but she never buys the things she liked because she feels there are other more important things she should buy so I am taking her out to let her choose what she likes and I would buy it for her. I just hope she doesn't pick something outrageously expensive! LOL!

Hi Scarletwitch, Thanks for responding my discussion. It's very sweet that you are thinking taking your mom out. My mom is like, when i take her to shopping, she is alway compliant about the things are too expensive, and telling me that i should save some money, blath,blath,.. But she does understand that i love her. lol

I usually like to give my mum flowers as she loves all kinds of flowers. Other than that I just love to spend time with her as we enjoy each others company and I do what I can to make sure she has a happy day.

Mother Day is not very popular here in china. But I regularly visit my mother, at least once a month. I would take some nutritious supplements, or at seasonal change, clothes of the season. She always says she has enough, but is happy to have the new ones, which we urge her to wear, instead of putting aside in the closet.

Hi Zhuhuifen, Thanks for responding my discussion. I am from China as well. I know it's not very popual, but people getting more and more familar with this festival. I actually think this is a good thing as we never have a festival for Mother and father. After mother's day, father's day is coming next month!

I will give my mom a Sony Digital Camera. She is asking me always what kind of camera is the best and which one is cheaper. So, I am planning to scout the best camera I've ever seen and do my research. I bought it last week and will give it this Sunday. I hope she like it.

my own mom passed last year so i'm on the other end of things here. I have 4 girls. What do I want for mother's day? NOTHING!! It is an overrated holiday. I don't want to feel bad because they spent money they didn't have on me. I don't want them to feel obligated to call me when they are busy with other things. They spend time with me all year long. We are close. They need to just ignore this day...it is like valentines...fathers day...any of those silly holidays. My girls get it. I will get nothing on mom's day and it is ok with me and they know it.

As far as I remember. I haven't give anything to my mom ever since for mother's day. For her birthday I do give her a present and of course during Christmas. Maybe next week I'll just give her a hug and say thank you for all the troubles Ive done. And if ever got some extra money, I'll buy her a shirt with some quotes on it.

my mom is what you would call frugal, if i was to actually get her anything she would lecture me from now till next year. she also says better not buy me a card, so i send her a email greeting card, as well as this year i get to surprize her we will be going to see her, you see i have a 1 year old daughter, that has just taken her heart away. so she will be double surprized. she's my mom and i'll respect her wishes that way she knows that i respect her.
