With Mother’s Day fast approaching it’s time for all us children to think about what our mum’s would like as a little gift.
Unfortunately for me my mum is no longer with us, so it’s something I don’t have to worry about, but I have 2 children of my own and they always get me a little gift. I also have to get something for my husband’s mum as he doesn’t have a clue and would probably end up at the last minute getting her a bunch of flowers from the local garage!!
From a personal point of view I’m especially keen on silver rings and have quite a large collection. It doesn’t make any difference if it’s cheap or expensive, just so long as it’s in a style that I like. I am just as delighted with a ring from a high street chain as an expensive jewellers because to me it’s not about how much the ring cost, but that they actually thought to get me something.
Funnily enough last year they both gave me silver earrings. For children I will say that they have pretty good tastes in ladies jewellery, so this must have rubbed off from my influence.
Unfortunately this didn’t rub off for their dad’s presents last year on Father’s Day. They both chose men’s jewellery for him, and in all honesty neither piece was something my husband would wear.This year they are thinking of getting him some tools to use around the home, that would certainly keep him out of mischief. If it was something to do with his precious golf clubs he would be even happier. I have never met somebody who is as keen on their sport as my husband. My other half can be found playing golf in all weathers, except when the golf course is shut due to thunder and lightning.
With all that in mind I have better make sure he hasn’t planned a golf game for Mother’s Day. Even though the kids buy me a gift, it’s hubby who cooks my breakfast as the kids would be an absolutely disaster if let loose in the kitchen.
