My grandmother loved being a parent so much, she always said everyday was Mother’s Day (she was right!). But there’s one day a year in May where we make sure to shower our mothers with extra love and affection as a way of saying thank you. It’s safe to say that spending time with your family is the best gift of the day, but something made by hand doesn’t hurt, either. This week’s roundup has several ideas for moms, grandmas, aunts or any special person you want to celebrate on Sunday, May 11.
