Unpopular opinion: Sometimes, the gifts we get on Mother’s Day are more work than they’re worth.

Mother’s Day is right around the corner. That’s right people - gear up for breakfast in bed and the crumbs/spilled orange juice you’ll probably have to clean up for yourself after you eat it. Sometimes the gifts we get are well intentioned but… miss the mark. A massage is ah-mazing, but who is going to watch the kids or pick them up from school? A night out with your partner? Incredible, but are you in charge of booking a sitter and planning the kids’ dinner? And what about the very soft, but not very necessary robe you received AGAIN this year? As Moms we feel SO MUCH pressure to love every gift our family gives us. Today, we’re saying what we’re all afraid to say: sometimes the planning and additional mental load that accompany these gifts make them more of a burden. Hit play and learn how to get what you really want for Mother’s Day this year, not string attached!
