Mara’s Story
“Two years ago, my daughter Kate gave me the best Mother’s Day gift — a family heritage photo book. Flipping through, I saw moments from my grandparents’ love story, special family gatherings — and even our family tree!
It was the old, faded photographs that captured my heart the most. They hold so much history — they remind me of where I come from.”
Kate says, “I just wanted to make my mom feel special. There’s nothing she loves more than family, so why wouldn’t I want to honor that?”
Helen’s Story
“Motherhood has so far been the most joyful, life-changing and humbling experience for me.
This Mother’s Day held extra magic for me as I celebrated my first year as a mom.
My best friend Emily surprised me with my first ever Mother’s Day gift — a photo blanket filled with my child’s milestones. The first smile, the six month mark — she handpicked photos I had proudly shared on social media.
It served as a gentle reminder of the challenges I’ve conquered and the blessings I’ve embraced along the journey of motherhood. When I hold it close, I’m reminded of the love that fills my life.”
Ruth’s Story
“My Mother’s Day gift from my grandchildren last year was…. beyond anything I could have imagined. Instead of the usual flowers or chocolates, they curated a gallery wall that told the story of my life — from my younger days to the present.
And now, every time I walk past it, I remember the feeling of “home”.
These stories remind us that the best Mother’s Day gifts are the ones made by you. It’s the thoughtfulness, love, and personal touch behind a gift that truly makes it one to remember. So, this Mother’s Day, take inspiration and show you your appreciation in a way that’s truly unique.
