Mother’s Day looks a little different this year. Maybe you’re celebrating with your own mom on Zoom. Maybe you’re looking for a way to say ‘you rock’ to a friend who’s now WFH, homeschooling a toddler, and doing everything in between.
So we rounded up gifts to help you celebrate all the moms in your life...the socially distant way. For when they’re tired. Or hangry. Or happy. Or stressed. Or all of those things at the same time. Oh, and if you're saying ‘it me,’ we invite you to treat yo' self. Happy Mother’s Day.
