To make along story short, my mom has had a very difficult couple of years. There have been a lot of ups and some very heartbreaking downs. She's been having a particularly hard time lately and isn't feeling appreciated or loved. It breaks my heart that she feels this way and with Thanksgiving coming up, my siblings and I want to think of a super special gift to give her to show her how loved she really is. She loves her garden, walking, dining out, her dog, and has been a stay at home mom since my brother was born 32 years ago.

How about a weekend away somewhere special with family? Spa retreat or country b&b or real vacation somewhere she's always wanted to go?
Or:
Personal chef to house to cook & serve dinner one night. A little more special than dining out. But that's fun too.
A personalized piece of jewelry?

Are you guys crafty at all? The one year DH and his brother built an arbor for his moms garden in one afternoon for their parents anniversary. They were out of the house during the morning and when they got back it was almost done!

Because she likes to dine out, what about a designer purse/wallet, maybe a Kate Spade bag?

@hellobeeboston: I would love to do a getaway, something like this would be great!
@regberadaisy: Wow, I don't think any of us are that crafty but that's so special.
@LuLu Mom: She's not much for designer things, but maybe if we have it to her she would appreciate it more.
