Mother’s Day is a beautiful time to celebrate, but it can often come with gifts that you don’t actually want but pretend you love. In an effort to help your partner do right by you and truly show their appreciation, perhaps this year you can send them some less subtle hints and be a little more bold about what you want.
This practice of sharing what you really want can bring such relief to your partner if they don't always know what to get you. And in turn, you have a wonderful holiday. Simply share this list below, or write your own, and email it to that special person in your life with a “you're welcome” message.
P.S. If you received this list from your partner and are reading it now, pair any one of these gifts with flowers and a card and you’re sure to be a hit for the rest of the year.

Girls' Day or Trip
Motherhood should not be done alone. A fun day out with girlfriends or a quick trip can remind your partner who they are outside of motherhood. Supporting a moms community with friendships is how we thrive throughout the seasons.
Spa Gift Card
Typically a spa day is a treat for practically any mom, and it gets better when it’s a gifted spa day. A treatment that can help her relax and enjoy life will be an amazing gift. Allowing your partner to have a treatment on you and lounge in a beautiful spa for a couple of hours is a dream.
