Hi all

As many of you know, next weekend is Mother’s Day. I am writing to remind you of this and that you have less than a week to get her mothers day gift. This year is a bit tough for my family. My sister’s three year memorial is on the same day as Mother’s Day and it has been a struggle to figure out what exactly to get my mom.

After querying all of my relatives and friends they all recommend flowers. And they are right. You can’t go wrong with flowers and fortunately with the internet and 1 800 Flowers there is a huge selection to choose from. We will probably go with some kind of sunflower and look for an arrangement with butterflies. Both were a favorite of my sister’s and seeing them always seems to lift mom’s spirits.

I would love to know what type of Flowers that you intend to get your mom. With mother’s day coming up 1-800 flowers is running some really nice specials. They even offer a mother’s day gift guide to help you choose the right arrangement for your mom.

Mother’s day is a celebration of all the love your mom has given you and all the sacrifices she has made. It’s the perfect time to say thank you for everything. Flowers just seem like the perfect gift to me because she gets to enjoy them for a few days after the big event.

Write in with your gift ideas and what you are doing to celebrate you mom.

Sincerely,
