Discussing what would make the perfect Mother’s Day gift with Elle.
Happy *Almost* Mother’s Day, Gals
This holiday is one of my favorites. It’s springtime, the flowers are blooming and it’s a non-birthday occasion on which gifts are given (hence my lovely guide below…the perfect resource to share with your gift giver!).
This holiday is also bittersweet. Given my recent struggles to give Elle a sibling, my eyes have been opened to a huge community of women who want nothing more than to be a mama. It makes me realize how lucky I am to get to celebrate this day as a mother, and breaks my heart for those who aren’t granted the same privilege and are just as worthy of celebration.
Whether you are a mom or want to be one, are celebrating your mama or have a four-legged child, I hope you have a special day on May 12. Here are some ideas of what to ask for! Would be so honored if you shared this with your gift giver and beyond.
