Hmm, you could give her something she could use at work, like a pretty pen. If you know her dress size maybe you could buy her one. Think of what your mother likes, probably something she likes but does not have yet. That would be a great gift for her. Happy birthday, happy teacher's day (is that right?) and happy mother's day to your mom.

Yes, that would be really nice. Her name engraved on it would give it a personal touch. And it says that you especially picked it for her.
And an advanced greetings of happy birthday to your twin brothers as well.

Hello
Welcome to mylot, as she is your mom you know her likes and dislikes, for ladies jewelry clothes are good, she is a teacher, why not give her a hand bag that she will carry to school, this will remind your affection always..

You can give her a bag or a pair of shoes which goes well with her school uniform. I am also a teacher and I love those things. You can also give her a sign pen which comes in a beautiful box.

Hi amelly,
Your limit is 200 US dollar or 200 ringgit Malaysia because there is a lot of different in it.
I think you should buy something that she can used it everyday or more then once a years. Things like watch, pen or cloths might be useful. It is more personal because they can saw it everyday and they would appreciate it more. And I do not think your mother would care much about the price. It is your sincerity, appreciation and love would be more important to her, like most mother do.
But if you are looking for something is more exclusive, you can share with your sisters and brothers to buy that. I do not think she would mind about it.

Hi, in some jewelleries you can ask for writing her name I a nice pen which you buy before, so she would have on personalized. If you now her size of shoes she uses, you could think about special shoes called 24 hours, as I presume that at work she rests many time standing and walking as well as at home, so in the evening she might have tired legs. Does she use handbags or keyring pendant? There are companies (even in internet) which put a photo of a loved person on handbacks, wallets and keyring pendants, also on cups for her tea or coffee. You only choose a photo (from her husband, yours....) and give or send it to the company and choose the product you want to put it on. It's a personalized present.
