My moms birthday is coming up soon and I find myself limited. She like flowers for a second. She doesnt really eat chocolate anymore, rarely touches wine and hasn't wore jewelry for a long while. Does use DVDs anymore. I've brought her slippers and...

A nice book, perhaps

@TexasGrandpa she doesnt really have the patience or willpower to read anymore.

You’d be better spending some quality time with her, have a great day together & show her you care. As you say, she doesn’t need frivolities to know you love her & it’s unwise to bring external goods into our homes anyway, at the moment ♥️

@SW-User At home, of course - none of us are supposed to be making unnecessary trips outside 🤗 Just prepare something tasty food, put on a fab movie & enjoy the day 😘

@BalmyNites will do! Thanks for the help.

You can get her a custom blanket with pics of the kids on it, fluffy socks, new bedding, meow? Idk. Send selfies. To me, not your mother.

If she likes gardening you could get her some nice plants or bulbs

OogieBoogie · F

You can take them somewhere they've never been.
So something for them they may,need help with.

Then there small things that mean so much.
Handmade things.

Even a small card that fits in her wallet with beautiful words or how much you love her.

Sometimes the most valuable things aren't showy of expensive.... They are small personal and precious.

@OogieBoogie I know that the best gifts dont have to be expensive. My favourite gift was from my sister and only cost £2.

But my mom doesnt really leave her home, even before all of this virus stuff.

OogieBoogie · F

@SW-User well, maybe with this corona thing, and the fact that she stays home... There are small window or pot gardens you can buy online - cherry tomatoes, chilli, small one pot herb gardens.
Or even just a pot plant - they are good for the air _ they help purify it amd are good for the spirit.🤷‍♀️

SW-User

@OogieBoogie I'll look into this, it sounds like a good idea.
