    My favorite Mother's Day gifts this year would be anything from my grandchildren....they all live 1000 miles away so even a phone call, webcam conversation or a quick Facebook chat is cherished

    Favorite thing to receive is a visit home from my (almost) grown boys. Favorite thing I ever gave my mom was this awesome hat box filled with fresh flowers and homemade cake from Nonnie Waller's online. Expensive but worth every penny

    Any thing Hand Made. Last year my hubby and 4 yr old son put on their tool belts and made a wooden flower box for the front of our house. I got to watch the whole process of the 2 of them measuring and hammering - watching was the best part.

    For Mother's Day, I love getting the opportunity to totally focus on a project that I want to work on--such as a quilt, writing a story that is on my list or enjoying a paper arts project. Two-four hours with no need to stop to do something else that needs to be done is truly a gift!

    I just love handmade gifts and cards from my kids. From my husband, he lets me pick out something to buy for myself :) and I also don't cook the whole Mothers Day weekend!

    The best gift I ever got was a Starbucks and a magazine. Simple but just right. However, that was really from DH. This year's PERFECT gift from the 4yr old was a squashed cake ( which "had to be shared" ) a bunch of daffs from the garden and a homemade card. I loved it all !

    My favorite gift for Mother's Day is time to relax... with my family, to scrapbook, or to watch a favorite movie together.

    My most meaningful gift I gave to my mother was a letter. I had written it for the mom contest that Regis and Kelly have on their tv show each year. I truly thought my mom deserved the recognition after all she had been through. She didn't win :( but I gave her the letter in an old, wooden box that she treasured for years. She passed away at a young age from melanoma last summer so this will be my first mother's day without her. The box still sits on her fireplace mantle so I may need to revisit that this mother's day in her honor. Thank you for sponsoring this meaningful giveaway.

    My favorite thing to receive is my family all together
    at church on Sunday morning. Then breakfast or lunch out after. Our extended families live elsewhere so its just the 5 of us, still. It's a beautiful thing, though.

    My children make me breakfast in bed every Mothers Day and it's always soo special! As a single Mom, I used to help them by setting out donut holes or something easy when they were little ones... Now that they are 10 years old, their breakfast is more creative. Last year it was granola with milk, fresh cut up fruit, and a glass of juice...

    Wow great giveaways! Thanks so much Ali. My Mother's Day treat is to get to spend time in my yard planting my annuals and then sharing time with my mom and my 3 children.

    For mother's day, I just love taking the day off... Allowing myself "no work, all play", letting my husband take care of the little things for the kids and relaxing! :)that day is always such a gift!

    im not a mom yet...unless you count my dog, gizmo and cat, baby.
    The best thing that I could give my mom is my time. She always wants me to come by on the weekends and spend time with her, be it shopping (specifically at craft stores) or scrapbooking, which is a hobby we both share. We go picture taking to different parts of our state together and it is really a lot of fun, not just for her but for me too.

    Since my son is just three and my daughter two months old, I've yet to have a real, child inspired mother's day. I'm hoping for something awesome, like on my birthday in January when my son said to me "Mommy, you're my best girl." Something heartmelting like that. :)

    My favorite things to recieve on Mother's Day has always been the things that were so important to my babaies at the time. My son is now almost 11, until he was six, I would get rocks, he would spent hours searching for the perfect rocks for me, because they were just the coolest things to him. I also have a huge collection of handpainted items from my now 22 year old and several decorated pillowcases from my now 17 year old. Now they bring me these things even though they have outgrown it, but I just haven't yet.

    I like to give small photo albums for Mother's Day, and I like getting the whole family together for a celebratory Mother's Day buffet at a special restaurant.
