hi everyone. =)
my mom is celebrating her birthday in about a week. i am scouting for some ideas on how i can surprise her. she likes gifts, but she is not into too much material things. i don't want her bday to be the typical birthdays that she had. i want her to feel special.
you may suggest dinner or prepare nice food...but along with that, what else can we do to surprise her?

How about bringing her somewhere where she could feel pampered, like in a spa? I'm pretty sure a relaxing body massage will be a delightful treat for her. Or if you want her to relax in your home, you and the rest of the family can do the chores for her for the day. I'm sure she'll really appreciate it.

hi moonchild.
i like that. =)
from the minute she wakes up, she's not allowed to do any household chore. she has to abide by the rules. all she will do is sit and be pretty. =)
i will ask her reflexologist to come to our house to do her regular massage. but the bill is on me. =) also i guess i will ask her friends to come over even if they live 3 cities away from us.
please wish me luck.
am excited. =)

hi amelly.
i would like to pamper my mom the way she's been doing to us since the time i caught my first breath.
i guess, i will plan for something that she's never tried but will definitely enjoy. and of course, the lovely card will be part of the entourage. =)
thank you much. =)

You can just prepare a candlelight dinner. It'll make her feel special and all. Make the ambiance a little dim. And also invite someone that she'll be surprised to see. :)

this gives me an idea...
i will make the rest of the day all about the family. =) and by night, we will prepare a nice candlelit dinner just for her and papa. i will just ask my sister to go out just to give them time. =)
thank you frontvisions101 for replying to this post. =)

A mom so special deserves a special surprise. Well, you can start by checking what her interests are, her passion, or personal favorite and incorporate it to her gifts or theme of the party.
Here are some suggestions also for a great birthday gift options that you can choose for your mom's special occasion.
1. Buy your mom a bonsai tree. It may symbolize trueness, goodness and beauty which your mom may have shown these virtues, it would be a great idea for you to consider giving her something that reminds everyone of her role and importance in the family.
2. Think classic. Nothing can compare the purity of your intentions by giving her a classic bouquet of beautiful flowers.
3. You can also give her a tranquility desktop fountain which could help her calm down in times of stress.
4. A set of beauty products. If your mom reaches the point where she feels down and insecure, it is nice to help her relive her beauty and confidence.
5. Buy her a pair of slippers that can make her feel comfortable and that are smooth as well. Take time to shop for the latest designs.
Again you can ask her what she likes the most and then wrap them up in a way that will amaze her.Hand her the present proudly and do not apologize for the gift. Leave her the impression that you chose the gift because your mom is so special to you.
Good luck!

why not take your mom for a lunch or dinner? treat to her to a salon, or buy her something that she really wants.. take some time out for her, give her the best bday..

Well don't give her any hint in these days that you remember her bday... Just behave as if you don't remember that her bday's going to come n on her bday surprise her by going to her at 12:00 am sharp n ask her to cut cake specially prepared by you for her.. The whole day should be dedicated her.. Arrange a surprise bday party for her by ringing up her friends n inviting them.. She'll be really elated by meeting them all. All the best dear..!

thank you iamsimran. this is kinda nice. hehe.
we will tease her as if we totally forgot her bday. then surprise surprise! it is our tradition to greet each other on the midnight of our birthdays or any special day. i will probably connive with my sister and my dad,to act as if we forgot. then few minutes past 12, we'll give her the surprise.
thank you again. am excited. =)

Well,you can give her surprise like,asking her long long friends to come and sing song for her.
Having a short program like a teenager having an 18 birthday or debut.
Then,you try to contact all her long friends,best friends and buddies to grace the event for her.
Just a suggestion dear,have a good day always and advance HAPPY BIRTHDAY to your MOM

A card--a really big one...gifts that you made yourself are the best gifts you could present to your mom--you could say I love you, too. Or you could just prepare a presentation or something nice for her.. Good luck..

i suggest some pampering for your mom. give her a gift certificate for a spa treatment or a make-over perhaps? then treat her out to a fancy dinner :)
