Mother's Day is the one designated day a year where we get to show our moms just how much they mean to us. They may humiliate us and drive us nuts, but at the end of the day there's no one who understands us more.

While this may be true, we sometimes forget Mother's Day actually exists, and we feel really bad about it.

Here are 7 last-minute gift ideas to get mom, which are just as great if you remembered to buy them earlier.

1. Alex and Ani Mom Charm Bracelet


What better way to tell your mom that you love her than with some bling. This Alex and Ani bangle comes in gold, rose gold, and silver, and goes with everything in your mom's closet. You also don't have to worry about the size because it is adjustable for all sizes!

2. Bath Salts

Our moms do so much for us and our family, and they deserve some alone time to relax in a warm bubble bath. There are so many products to choose from, so your bound to find something that you know your mom will love.

Check out Total Beauty for 2016's Best Bath Products.

3. Spa Trip

Take the bubble bath to the next level by giving your mom the spa day of her dreams: deep tissue massages, seaweed wraps, the works. Depending on where you go, it may be a little pricey, but that's ok, this is your mom's special day. Plus, she had to put up with you, so you kind of owe her.

4. Baked by Melissa Mother's Day Cupcakes

These NYC based delicious mini cupcakes are a sweet thank you for all the hard work your mom does for you. If the Mother's Day selection isn't to your liking (or your mother's for that matter), no worries! You can choose your own flavors in a custom pack. Bonus: they ship nationwide!

5. Personalized Phone/Laptop Case

We know our mom's need their technology as much as we do, so why not give them something personal that they will use all the time? Skinit has a massive selection of customizable cases, sleeves, and more for all of your mom's tech.

6. DIY Custom Mug

If your mom is a coffee or tea drinker, a custom mug is the perfect way to say "I love you." Get a white mug and some Sharpies and decorate a mug you know your mom will love - write her favorite quote, draw a cute picture, really anything goes. Once you're finished, bake it at 300 degrees for 35 minutes, and viola!

7. Tickets to "Mother's Day"

This might not seem like the best gift, but nothing beats spending quality time with mom. You can make a night of it by having a Mother's Day dinner beforehand, and then relaxing with some buttery popcorn and a cheesy movie.


Regardless of what you get mom, make sure she knows just how much you love and appreciate her. She is your mother afterall.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
