Hey Guys! In honer of mothers day, I am making this post ALL ABOUT MOTHERS!!!
Ok so reply and tell me why you love your moms! My mom is awesome! She helps me with school projects, drives me everywhere, and makes the bestest food in the whole entire world!!!! Here is a quote i found on mothers:
“A mother's love is patient and forgiving when all others are forsaking, it never fails or falters, even though the heart is breaking”
-Helen Rice
Isnt that true though? Like you could mess up a million trillion gazillion times but your mom will like never hate you or stop loving you.
"Working mothers are guinea pigs in a scientific experiment to show that sleep is not necessary to human life."
- Author Unknown
Hahaha this made me laugh. It is true though, isnt it? In 4th grade i remember that my mom stayed up until 5:30 to finish a poster for me. After that she went to bed and woke up at 6:15 in the morning. ONLY 45 MINS OF REST!!!!
"Any mother could perform the jobs of several air-traffic controllers with ease."
- LisaAlther
OMG moms can dolike a billion things at once!!! Haha my mom cooks dinner, helps me with homework, helps my sister with homework and does the bills... AT THE SAME TIME!!!
My favorite thing about my mom is the way she COOKS!!! Like i am not even joking, her Indian food is the best i have ever tasted!!!
So what are you getting you moms??? If you are stuck here are 9 great ideas:
1. Recipes by the Dozen
Armed with just a printer and some paper you can quickly whip up an impromptu and customized cookbook with Mom in mind. What kinds of food does she like? Is she a real kitchen maven or does she struggle to even make a PB&J?
Check out a popular recipe site where you can access print-friendly recipes categorized by skill level. Bind your pages, add a fancy cover and you're done.
2. Create a Customized Cell Phone Screensaver
Create a personalized cellphone screensaver for Mom. Choose from a wide selection of freeware and shareware programs that quickly guide you through the steps necessary to create a screensaver of family photos.
Red Dodo provides online templates you may easily customize with your own text. Then you simply download to Mom's cellphone.
Download a program like MobileShare 2.2. The program guides you in creating a cellphone screensaver from the photos and transitions you choose.
3. Fill Mom's Gas Tank
This is by far not the cheapest Mother's Day gift these days, but if you show up at Mom's on Mother's Day, no gift and without a clue, remember that this can save you in a pinch.
You can even take it one step further and run her car through the car wash.
4. Give Mom the Gift of Song
At Custom Mother's Day Songs you can order a downloadable MP3 of an original Mother's Day song, with illustrated lyric sheet and CD cover.
You can even use a music CD-writing program on your computer to copy the song onto a CD - then print the CD jacket cover, print the illustrated lyric sheet and you're good to go!
5. Dozens of Classic Novels in the Palm of Her Hand
Find an affordable flash drive for under $30. Then Download a couple of classic novels or biographies onto the drive.
Mom can simply plug the drive into a computer and access PDF files of copyright-free works. Search for classics like Moby Dick, Wuthering Heights, and The Odyssey.
6. Make One Magazine Go Far
You're on your way to Mom's house without a Mother's Day gift, again. In retrospect a magazine subscription would have been an excellent idea had you thought of it a month ago. But for less than $5 you can still buy yourself some time.
Swing into the grocery or drug store and pick up a current issue of one of Mom's favorite magazines. Tell her she'll continue to receive one each month...and don't forgot to follow through!
7. Does Mom Like to Read?
If you have books of your own you might consider choosing a couple that she might enjoy. Think of this as the perfect second-hand book gift.
Who says a good book has to be brand new? If second hand bookstores can do it, so can you. You might even be able to free up some closet space at the same time.
8. Set Up a Virtual Family Reunion
Treat Mom to an online family conference call or full-blown, multi-media Internet meeting. Voice over Internet (VOIP) and video capabilities make a family gathering among far apart family members a very real possibility and memorable event.
Conference calls make it easy for large numbers of family and friends - anyone with a phone - to call into a central number at a planned date and time and connect with their loved ones.
Companies like iVisit, host virtual, private conference rooms for an affordable price and cater specifically to families. Invite family and friends to login and share video, documents, photos and even messaging tools.
For a simple telephone conference call, you can go with a free service like FreeConference.
9. Mom's Own Domain Name
Register your Mom's first and last name as a .com, .org, or .net. If she has a common name that is already registered, think of a phrase that describes who she is and what she likes.
Set up an appointment to show how she can use her new domain. Mention that she can have an online voice with a blog, and set this up for her using free blogging software such as WordPress or Blogger
Lastly I would just like to say happy mothers day to my mom and i hope you all have a great sunday :)

Thanks for mentioning my blog!
ReplyDeleteAnd those are AMAZING quotes and ideas!
Well, I love my mom because she can be a loving mother that shops, works, does the bills, and clean, do laundry, and a million motherly stuff but ALSO she can be a caring friend who listens to my problems, gives me advice, and "hangs out" with me like a friend.
I'm getting my mom a Snuggie Blanket (she said she wanted it one day after i critisized it..lol), a book light, and an alarm clock cuz she needs one! my card for her on the front says "Someday I'll move out and go out on my own, MOm, and I know what you'll be thinking..." and then when u open it it sings "HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH-HALLELUJAH-halleluuuujah!"
lol
how bout u,"AnotherTwilightFan"?
