Here are some of the best (and most affordable) Mother’s Day gifts for the special woman in your life this year.

Year-long NatureBox subscription

If your mom is a health-nut (or just likes a nice healthy snack now and then) she might love a subscription to NatureBox. Every month she will receive a box with five different health snacks inside. It’s a gift that just keeps giving! NatureBox: https://naturebox.com

A cute new phone case

If your mom is techy, a cute new phone case could be the perfect way to go. There are an infinite number of designs available so you could commemorate her favorite sports team, a private joke you have together, or just something she would find aesthetically pleasing. Etsy.

Matching coordinates bracelets

Let your mom know that even if distance separates you while you’re at school, it will never keep you apart. These could be any location in the world that has significance to the two of you, such as the house you grew up in or your favorite vacation spot.

A funny tote bag

Call her more

I’m serious. As a gift to your mother schedule in an extra phone call home every week or month. This costs you nothing more than your phone bill and is sure to make her happy. Although you might want to throw in a tangible gift as well, just in case.

Happy shopping!

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.
