my wonderful mom I have a great mom. She has her ups and her downs but she always bends over backwards for me. I love her a lot, but she thinks I'm not as appreciative as I should be. So...since mother's day is coming up I really want to suprise her with something really nice. I don't want just a present for her, I want something that she will remember forever. I already am getting her a present anyways. What should I do for her?? I live in a really small town so I can't take her to a really nice restraunt or take her to a play or something. It has to be kind of like a homeade present suprise. I'm thinking maybe a dinner. And a day off from everything. What do you think I should do?? P.S. I only have about sixty dollars. I have more, but I can't get to it right this moment so I'm stuck with sixty. Any ideas would be really great!!!

I know it sounds kind of cheesy, but maybe make her jewelery. If you can go to a nice store with a lot of beads and wire, then get some really pretty glass beads. Or there might be a place in your town where you can bead. Like an art place or something. The pottery painting place in my town also has beading; if you have one you could maybe try there?
Also, dinner is a great idea.
If you don't like the jewelery, maybe you could do a small scrapbook of you and her. I'm sure she'd love that. ]
Do all the housework for her- for a week. Give her a well-deserved vacation from everything she's stuck doing. Cook all the meals- or at least SOME of them. Surely you can make her coffee and pour cereal, right? haha.
Being a good kid and saying "thanks Mom, I love you!" goes a lot farther than you might think. Moms like to be appreciated. I know this because I just asked my mom what SHE wanted yesterday. Talk to her, ask her what she needs. Or has she been hinting at something? "Gosh, we could really use more tulips in the garden out front!" (Buy her some bulbs for next year) "Oh, I'm almost out of perfume again!" (Buy her a nice perfume that YOU like, too- so you can use it!)
Plus, what woman doesn't like to be pampered? Do her hair and makeup one day, she'll love having the day off!
