Mother's Day is May 9! That is coming up fast. But don't give up, shrug, and send her a text with a cute heart emoji instead of flowers or a gift. This is 2021. You can leave it to the last minute and still do something nice.
If you are reading this, you have everything you need — a screen and an internet connection — to get flowers and a gift delivered to her door. Remembering is hard. But doing this is easy, fast, and fun. And she will be thrilled that you remembered in time to do something intentional and sweet.
All you have to do is spend $50 and Target will deliver your gift to her door today — even if it's Mother's Day already!
Send her a bouquet of roses
Roses are red, orange, white, yellow, and pink if you choose one of these beautiful bouquets from Target.com.
Add them to a small gift to get your total to $50 and Target will deliver them on Mother's Day — even if you don't order till Mother's Day.
See? I told you it wasn't too late to send flowers. It will be too late if you wait till May 10, though.
This is a big bunch of 12 roses in the color you choose.
A Kindle Paperwhite for the mom who loves to read
Yesterday, you thought you were blowing this whole Mother's Day thing; today you are giving her the technology that will fuel her reading habit.
The Kindle Paperwhite is the best of the Kindle readers, with a beautiful crisp screen that looks almost like paper.
It's on sale for $35 off at Target, and she will be thrilled to be able to carry an entire library of books wherever she goes.
A weighted blanket for instant calm
Crawl under a weighted blanket and it calms fried nerves and takes you right to nap time. This is what you want to give your mom, right?
How many years did she spend soothing you and putting you down for naps! Now it's your turn! And Target will deliver it.
This weighted blanket comes in two colors — Heather Blush and Heather Gray — and is covered in a soft jersey so her naptime won't have any scratchy textures.
Some bling that plays music to her ears
When mom goes for a walk, works in the garden, or cleans the house, does she have a great pair of mobile earbuds so she can listen to a book, play some tunes, and take a call without fumbling with her phone?
This pair looks pretty while she's wearing them, and they look pretty while they are charging in their carrying case.
They come in Powder Blue or Stone White, are noise canceling, and play for eight hours on a charge. When they die, pop them back in the case to power them up again.
An easy way to clean her phone
Keeping a phone germ-free is very difficult, since we touch them all the time and you can't soap them up and run them under hot water. But this PhoneSoap UV sanitizer cleans a phone without hurting it.
Just drop the phone into the case, close the lid, and push the button. This sanitizer uses UV-C light to kill the germs, viruses, and bacteria that might be living on it. You can drop anything else in it that will fit, too — like keys, wallets, and jewelry — and they will all be germ-free.
