Give Your Mom a Box of Memories for Mother’s Day… …instead of a box of chocolates
For Mother’s Day this year, give Mom a really special gift---a gift that comes straight from your heart (instead of just from your wallet). Don’t give her a box of chocolates…give her a box of memories! Special photos of you and your Mom...or keepsakes that you’ve collected over the years to find things that can serve as the basis for a Memories gift. The important thing here is to think about just what it is you remember most when you think about your Mom. For more on this idea, go to Give Your Mom a Box of Memories for Mother’s Day…
