I totally dropped the ball. Any suggestions on a last minute mother's day gift? My mom's love language is gifts and mibe is definitely not... I'm terrible at picking stuff and to make matters worse she doesn't really have any hobbies or interests that make it easy to give gifts. I even have a painting from my little one and photos to frame but no way they will get there in time unless I pay a small fortune so I'll save those for her birthday in two weeks. It needs to be mailed since she lives far away and I won't be seeing her anytime soon.

Do you have Amazon prime? I would do something from there - we sent my MIL a great blanket from there last minute once. Or Zappos is quick too if she needs any new clothes or shoes .. slippers / handbag / bathing suit coverup if she has a trip planned.. etc

We give my MIL a restaurant gift certificate every year. Often the restaurant will just hold it for her until she picks it up (there aren't many restaurants in the town where she lives.

A Nixplay digital photo frame (send it from Amazon) - you can upload photos to it remotely so she always has up to date pictures.

Dh found some chocolate covered strawberries that shipped next day on Amazon prime, but not sure t will deliver on Saturday. I think a restaurant gift card could've your best bet.
I was inthis predicament yesterday, but my mom isn't super into gifts anyway. I had the baby do a drawing that I turned into a card, and grabbed some "artwork" the preschooler had brought home from school, and mailed from the post office so hopefully it will arrive tomorrow.

I sent my mom some local coffee beans since we live in different areas. Does she enjoy anything like that? Maybe a gift card to a local coffee shop they can mail out this morning? (It would probably get there tomorrow, or maybe you could have someone pick something up for you that is local to her?)

Does she like flowers?
-
Flowers
-
Flowers!
Or something you can Amazon if you have Prime?

Is there an edible arrangements in the vicinity of the town where she lives? I've sent those before and they're always a hit.
