10-Best Tips for Delighting Your Wife on Mother's Day
-
Spoil her with a luxurious day of
relaxation. Start by sending her to the sofa with a handful
of magazines a steaming cup of coffee and box of exquisitely creamy truffles.
No arguments accepted.
- When the doorbell rings, allow her
to get up briefly to answer the door. Watch the expression
on her face when the florist delivers a glorious bouquet of
delicate pink roses enveloped in baby's breath and
eucalyptus. Rescue her before her eyes well with tears.
(Trust us, she will be very, very touched.)
- Rally the kids 'round the living room while you shower
your wife with gifts fit for a queen: her favorite fragrance or perhaps some jewelry
that best reflects her personality. Or maybe an intricate
silk scarf or cosmetics case
filled with the products she uses most. All you have to do
is watch her smile.
- Whisk her upstairs for a long soak in a hot tub -- this
is her chance to enjoy the bath and body products
the kids bought her with their hard-earned allowance.
- Use this opportunity to sweep, dust
and vacuum downstairs -- it doesn't have to be perfect. (It
really is the thought that counts.) Then pile the kids into
the minivan and zip on down to the car wash. Invest a few
dollars to wash, wax, and vacuum her car, as well.
- Fill 'er up with gas on the way
home...
- ...and stop just long enough to
pick up a bucket of chicken and three of her favorite
"sides."
- Spread a picnic blanket on the lawn
in the back yard, and set the "table" with colorful paper
ware and cutlery -- yellow plates, pink napkins, green
forks. Call your wife down to join in the festivities.
- Let her pick her favorite piece of
chicken first, and offer her the last biscuit.
- Clean up the mess, kiss her on the cheek, and thank her
for being the best mother on the planet.
