May means springtime, flowers, shedding heavy winter clothes, and...

(Sunday May 11th 2008)

Most of us can look back with much gratitude for all that our mothers did for us as we were growing up, and many of us have wonderful mothers-in-law or life partner's moms we want to honor as well. Gift certificates or pre-paid appointments and secret maneuvers into a spa for surprise treatments are always appreciated. Mother/daughter (and even creative Mother/son) specials are what Mom really loves! Available throughout the month of May we've created a variety of special treats for the Moms in your life, and of course we'll customize a dream day for your mom around your time and financial budget.

When it comes time to select a truly appreciated Mother's Day gift, think Spa Gift Certificate!

Giving a spa gift certificate is always a big hit! You can stop by our Front Desk and purchase a Gift Certificate for a service, package, product or specified value; order your gift by phone, fax or e-mail, and have the certificate mailed to you or directly to Mom.

Surprise!

Surprise Mom with an appointment for a massage, facial, body or foot treatment; perhaps after a great breakfast in bed, brunch at one of our local eateries or picking her up at home and sweeping her off for a day of delight... All you need to do is make the appointment ahead of time, deliver Mom - and we'll take care of the rest.

But do you want to know what Mom's favorite gift of all is?.

What Mom loves in addition to all the special pampering is to spend time with her children, and her perfect Mother's Day gift is sharing time, enjoyment and experience with her daughters (and sons).

More Mother's Day Ideas:

• Visit Mom in person

• Tuck a personal handwritten letter, story or poem inside Mom’s Mother’s Day card.

• Plant some bulbs for Mom, so early next spring they'll delight and remind her how much you love her.
