Mother’s Day is just around the corner and if you’re anything like my family, you are already trying to figure out what it is that Mom wants this year. Most of what I said I wanted for Mother’s Day in 2018 still remains true.
I polled my Instagram followers to see what it is they really want this year. The answers were so good, I had to share (with their permission, of course).
And my favorite of all… Spend the night before in a hotel all by myself so I can sleep in peace and as long as I want. Then wake up to room service breakfast then a massage and pedicure. Then come home to happy kids who made me cards and got me flowers. Then go on a hike or walk if it’s nice out, maybe a bike ride, and end it at our favorite brewery. – @danaemboyle
All of the answers above sound amazing! But if you’re looking for a gift instead (or to go with one of the above), check out my ultimate Mother’s Day Gift Guide.

So many great ideas here, thanks for sharing x
I would really like the SPA and thorough home clean up as a gift
I always liked experience gifts more than products. These are very nice alternatives, thank you 🙂
Nice ideas! Spa day and a deep clean of my mom house is the best gift that I can give for her this mother’s day.
I would love that cute pink tie dye lounge wear set, those slippers and snuggling up in that egg chair!
It’s a really nice topic, I couldn’t ask for more other than a sleep and a trip somewhere relaxing.
I know my wife would want the day by herself, to get some much needed sleep! I should ask her.
