Hey, guys. I was hoping for some gift help. Mother’s day is coming and we want to get something nice for MIL. As background, she takes care of our almost 9 month old son every day. She spends at least 50 hours per week at our house caring for him. She’s also on occasion left us dinner, cleaned my oven (!), folded laundry, weeded the lawn – you name it. She says it is like a vacation for her but she must be exhausted!
Anyway, I think Mother’s Day is a great opportunity to do something nice for her. I was thinking something sentimental but I’m open to other ideas as well. For her birthday in August, we are going to give her an album of DS’s first year so an album is out. Cost? We’re open on that too. I would say not more than $300 though.
Here are some things that MIL likes (but probably doesn’t have time for her since she spends all of her time with DS!):
Gardening, reading, ancestry/genealogy, running, classical music
Suggest away! Thank you!
