We’re sharing some gift ideas for all the women in your life! Moms, grandmothers, nanas, friends, mom figures, new moms, whoever you want to give something special this Mother’s Day. I also wanted to acknowledge here that I know Mother’s Day can be hard and sad for a variety of reasons; Please know that I have you in my heart.
Hello friends! How was the weekend? I hope you had a wonderful time. Liv had a dance competition so we enjoyed a trip to Phoenix with swimming and dinner in between dancing. The pilot stayed here with her P to take her to practice and the basketball game. We are officially in the “divide and conquer” stage of parenting.
For today’s post, I wanted to share some gift ideas for Mother’s Day. This year I don’t ask for many gifts: my ideal gift is tickets to a show or a vacation! – but I really want to celebrate all the women in our family that we love so much.
I thought I’d share some ideas if you’re shopping, and I’d love to hear your gift guide picks too!
