Hilarious Mother’s Days gifts

[Hesma]

I’ve had the biggest giggle with my Mum this morning 🤣. I’ve been ill all week with shingles and so can’t visit my Mum this weekend neither of my parents have had chicken pox. So posted card and present, she opened it this morning and I’d sent her a beautiful photo frame but forgot to put the photos of the kids in 🤦‍♀️… crying with laughter down the phone together… best present ever!

My DDs are with dad this weekend and I know I won’t get anything because I was too poorly to take them shopping. However my youngest (who has SEN) made me a card at Cubs… apparently it’s a cow and an elephant 🤣🤣🤣

AIBU to think giggles and memories are more important than stuff! I’ll get a cuddle when my girls get home later… what more could any Mother want?

My then-toddler daughter got me a Minions Easter Egg one year. She was adamant that since I liked chocolate, and Minions were one of her favourites, it would be the perfect gift. The Easter Eggs had been next to the Mothers Day gifts in the shop.

(It was actually inedible but its a very fond memory!)

My daughter has just given me my card but has misspelled beautiful and instead it reads beautitiful 😁

I am quite titiful mind.

Have a lovely day op ❤️

I once received a jar of beetroot from my young adult ds 😂

I remember buying my mum an ironing board for Mother’s Day many many years ago. I’d saved up my pocket money for a really lovely one. It was not as well received as I imagined 😆

I got a lucky pebble in a kinder egg plastic pod from my DS. I’m not sure what’s lucky about it, it just looks like a chunk of rock. It was given with much love though so I will treasure it! 😂

For the first couple of years I independently bought my mum presents, I went for things like aprons or tea towels or other kitchen paraphernalia, until she gently explained that she’d rather have something that didn’t relate to being a household skivvy!

My almost four year old DD got me a bottle of coke and some buenos! I’m 31 weeks pregnant and try not to have coke but she knows it’s my guilty pleasure that we don’t have in the house 😂 then proceeded to say let’s share the chocolate in bed as it’s Mother’s Day for her too!

I’ve just had a post shaving face mask 😂😂

Love these. I much prefer looking back on things & laughing.

I got a decorated neon glass which I think may be toxic to drink from & a clay model/fairy light object d'art!

I just got a kettle

However hubby is downstairs making pancakes as breakfast in bed and will be making a roast as his mum and dad are coming over so I'm very lucky

Teen humour coming out in my card this morning-
roses are red
violets are blue
thank you mum for pushing me out of you.

it made me laugh on what is a hard day (first without my own mum)

Bottom animal looks like a parrot to me 😃
I got, almost thrown at me, a beautiful plant as my dd rushed out of the door nearly late for work this morning.

Loving this thread

So far my gift seems to be alone time with my child while my DH is still sleeping

LOL!!

Nothing from the kids but the cat brought me a mangled, thankfully dead, mouse this morning. At least he's on it !

I've got the gift of... the policeman episode of Peppa Pig on in the background, while I eat some toast my husband just about managed not to incinerate!

Apparently my husband got a card for me from England, but after 2 weeks it still hasn't arrived.

What I'd really like is for our little family's collective either bad flu or Covid (which manifested on Day 3 of our recent holiday and has now been affecting us for 12 days now( to kindly piss off, so we can actually get back to normal and start to enjoy our lives once more!

My DCs school does a Secrets Room where they can take in £3 and choose a present for you. My two did a good job, one chose a pen and the other a notebook. But they didn't know each parcel also had a mini chocolate bar in, and asked if they could have them when I opened them! The cheek!

I got a tin of mushy peas one year from late teen son because I love them (reader, I do). Yesterday, from uni, he sent me a bottle of Prosecco. He is improving.

🤣🤣🤣 class!

Who the hell is saying YABU?!

Honestly this is more what’s it’s about love OP’s card
great to see rather than the depressing thread I’ve just read about a demand for jewellery that’s ended up in disappointment

no doubt a face like a slapped arse and atmosphere you could cut with a knife

My 8yr old Son made a card at School, It is a flower and says My Mum Is....underneath each petal he has wrote something like fun,Kind etc
Under one particular petal he has written Servant!(funny because I always say to him "I'am not your servant" when hes forever asking me to fetch him something.
He was so proud of this and for making me laugh.

I voted YABU, but that is so clearly a cow and an elephant that I cant understand you casting aspersions at it

My eldest made me breakfast in bed when he was about 7. I got coco pops (🥳) and tea . I asked him how he’d managed the kettle … “it’s ok mum I used hot water out of the tap”

I miss those days
