Happy Mother's Day!

Mother's Day is here - a special day reserved for mom. How are you going to say "Thank you" to your mom?


Since moving to New Jersey eight months ago, I've only seen my mother, who still resides in my home state of Massachusetts, twice. This year, I'm taking a trip back home to celebrate my mother, and enjoy a special day filled with quality time.


A year ago, I wouldn't have thought twice about a trip like this for mom, but with increasing gas prices, I actually had to contemplate my decision, falling back on the idea that spending nearly that much online could get mom something wonderful – shipped directly to her, and the whole transaction would take a fraction of time it would to drive there.


That being said, I know this weekend will be special. And, although I'm not coming empty handed, I know the time spent with my mom this weekend will be the best gift I could give her.
