With Mother's Day approaching, I thought I would suggest a few of the gifts I have received through my many Mother's Days that I have truly appreciated.

From free to more expensive, not in order however:

• A simple visit and stroll down memory lane of the good times

• Lunch date, complete with a small bouquet on the table just for her

• A dozen annual flowers in a cardboard box to put where I wanted

• A simple planter of annual flowers to set wherever or plant

• A rose bush

• A bus ticket to visit a friend

• A bus or plane ticket to your house

• A bus ticket to a favorite spot marked with special sites along the way

• Dinner brought in or maybe breakfast instead

• Calls from the grand children even if moms and dads have to prompt them into it.

• A piece of paper made into a card, no matter how crude, saying simply I love you and thanks for giving me life, or if adopted for choosing to make mine special.

Remember a gift is always nice, but it really is the thought that counts, just being remembered by the children they choose to have is what means the most to any Mother.
