From the functional to the extravagant, these gifts will say “I love you” even if you can’t say it in person
Words by THE C MAGAZINE TEAM
Regardless of the day, mothers deserve it all. They’ve led by example, having taught us about patience, compassion and life’s most important virtues while also providing the invaluable gift of unconditional love as we’ve navigated our way from child to adulthood. This Mother’s Day, we’re thinking about gifting the things that best reflect the appreciation we feel for our superwomen from a distance. Because to give a gift is to express love — something we can all use a little bit more of in these unusual circumstances. And at a time when a physical connection is largely impossible, sending a thoughtful gift with a handwritten note will go a long way.
