5. Wallet
Every person on earth needs it. A cute small wallet which she would love to carry when she is out for as petty as a grocery shopping spree with her friends.

8. Off-day Resolution
Promise her a once a week off from kitchen on a Sunday lunch plan the way you get from your school, college or office and cook her anything, your her favourite pasta, noodles or simply vegetable rice. She would love the effort and graciously accept this annual resolution of you cooking 52 meals a year for her every Sunday as her Mother’s day gift this year in 2017.
9. Flower Pot
What’s the point of gifting her a bouquet of roses that would die in three days? Better plant a nice sapling in a pot so that she waters it daily and remember you when the plan grows to make way for blooming of scented roses in different hues. Now, that is like a nice Mother’s day gift for the year 2017.
10. Pocketed Phone Case
Now. we know our mothers carry a whole lot of stuff when she leaves the house to make sure she has everything handy when in need. Either she would forget cards, keys or her phone in hurry. Gift her a phone case with many pockets so that she carries one thing which holds it all for her in her hands. Good start to executing things to become handy this Mother’s day onwards for your mommy in 2017.
Your Mom anyway loves you. Show her how much you do. We know love can never be quantified because it is abstract. But, the intensity of it can be easily felt. Keeping all that in mind, shower her these cute little things and wish her a great “Mother’s Day” in the year 2017. Because “Mommy you are the best.”
