Top Ten Gifts
Top Ten Gifts Moms Want Top Ten Gifts Moms Want Katy Abel What do women really want? It's a question that's been handed down through the ages. And now, as we prepare to salute Moms, we find ourselves pondering it even more. Godiva truffles? Breakfast in bed? A pink corsage? According to a highly un scientific survey of both veteran and new Moms, the answer is "none of the above." So for the genuinely puzzled and the completely clueless, we offer the gift of a "Top 10 List." These are things to do or buy that are guaranteed to move Mother's Day far beyond the usual flowers and chocolates. Go Ahead: Make My (own) Bed It's a gift mom Margot O'Toole treasured for weeks, even though it was nothing she could sniff, swallow, or try on. One Mother's Day morning, her young son Brendan simply announced that effectively immediately, he would begin to make his own bed every day.And he did, at least, for a matter of weeks. It meant more to Margot than all the cards and flowers received before or since. Take Out and Hang Out Claire Cahill, mother of three-year-old triplets Meaghan, Kimberly and Matthew, remembers the year she and her husband tried to take all three babies - and her mother - out to eat on Mother's Day. "It was absolutely horrible," she says, shuddering at the memory. "We'd made reservations, and even so we had to stand and wait for a table. We'd called ahead for three high chairs; when we got there, they didn't have any! So we sat with the kids on our laps and it was very stressful. "Sometimes people try to make it so special a day that it goes the other way. So last year we got Chinese takeout and just hung around the house taking pictures of the kids. We had such a good time that we're going to do it again this year!" Home Alone Of course you should spend time with her. But maybe Mom would love to be...left alone! One of the greatest gifts a mother can receive is a "coupon" for a day off. Hubby takes the kids and head for the hills one morning. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Mom soaks in a hot tub, curls up by the fire with a good book, or invites a long-neglected friend over for lunch. Ahhhh....the sounds of silence. Shhhh. Say It With...Trees Most communities have garden clubs or beautification committees. Some sell trees and shrubs as a fundraiser. Buying a tree or plant for Mom, then planting it with her in the yard, is a fun activity to do with children and a lasting tribute. Take It To The Streets "Mother's Day isn't about chocolates, it's about taking care of our children," says M.J. Gregoire, one of the local organizers for the Million Mom March in Washington D.C. She and thousands of other moms have boarded buses - with kids in tow - to head to the nation's capital in a mass show of support for tougher gun control laws. If you'd like to accompany or send your Mom to this year's Million Mom March (with her permission of course), visit millionmommarch.com. A Blast From Her Past "I'd love nothing more than to return to my high school with my two (grown) children, and have us all sing together in the annual alumni concert," says Vinny A., mother of two and grandmother of three. Why not spend Mother's Day making a trip down Mom's own Memory Lane, with brunch at the hotel where she once danced with Dad, or tickets to a musical revived from "her" era? This Is Your Life Here's a great activity to do with kids: make a book about Mom's life! The simplest materials will do - construction paper folded, cut and stapled - illustrations done with paint, crayons, markers, and/or photos. This is a good excuse to call Mom's mom or other far-flung relatives for details on the naughty escapades of her childhood or college adventures. Basketweaving 101 Whether she's got a toddler or a teen, most mothers need - and seldom get - a night out. Sign up Mom for a course at a local community college or adult education program: Something fun! How about an Introduction to Chilean Wines, The Fine Art of Bellydancing, or Feng Shui? Say Cheese It's not in the cheap category, but if you're ready to go for broke, a professionally done family portrait would top any Mom's wish list. Remember Moms In Need Each year, the Women's Lunch Place in Boston hosts a special Mother's Day party for homeless and impoverished women.Guests enjoy a special meal of steak tips and scallops, dance to music provided by a live band, and receive corsagesand other gifts. "It came out of a realization that a lot of our guests have lost their families," explains Erin Kelly, fundraising coordinator for the day shelter. "This is a way we could show them that they are still special." Donors pay $25-35 to have a specially designed card sent to their own Moms, with a message saying that a donation to the Women's Lunch Place has been made in their name. (For more information, visit www.womenslunchplace.org. Donations in your mom's name - to her favorite charity - are a wonderful way to sustain the meaning of Mother's Day throughout the year!

Top Ten Gifts
BlindKiss - The Top Ten Gifts for a Blindy This Christmas The Top Ten Gifts for a Blindy This Christmas by The Thinker 10. A cassette recording of a BBC Radio Four comedy series - any series will do as obviously the Blindie, who listens to Radio Four in every spare moment (and he has a lot of those!), will find it instantly recognisable. 9. An inflatable doll - everybody has their sexual needs and you should pity those who are unable to satisfy them in the normal way.Note: This gift is applicable to males only as female Blindies are sweet, innocent, virginal creatures who have never even had an impure thought. 8. A bottle of wine - ensure that the bottle is an unusual shape and the alcohol percentage is low as the average Blindie has poor balance and you would not want to be saddled with a personal injury legal suit for 2003. 7. A large box of chocolates - a useful gift during the protracted and monotonous periods of Radio Four listening. 6. Driving lessons - this is for the Blindie that you really don't like and an absolutely fantastic way to rub it in. Note: ensure that the cost of the lessons is refundable prior to purchase otherwise this may be a rather expensive insult. 5. Pot pourri - do not worry that this gift may offend as Blindies have little or no concern for personal or domestic hygiene but they do love a good smell. 4. Any video where a blind person regains his sight (the inclusion of a love interest is preferable) - this may help to perk up your depressive Blindie over the festive season and make them a bit less annoying around the house. Don't buy this gift if you are expecting videos yourself as they may monopolise the video recorder for weeks. 3. Well known pieces of classical music (cassette not CD for safety reasons) - Blindies are not concerned with popular music, culture or society but a good classical recording will always hit the spot. 2. Silk underwear (generally for the girls only) - A well received gift which you can spend little time choosing as it will never be seen by anyone. 1. A clay model of your own head - this gift is perhaps more for your own benefit because it should ensure that, should the Blindie get the well known urge to feel other peoples faces, they won't start with yours! You can email The Thinker if you have anything to say about this article, or anything else! Take me back to the Christmas articles page
