A Small Word With Big Meaning
When you think of the word ‘MOM’, what’s the first thing that pops into your head?
*Smart *Funny *Beautiful *Caring *Creative *Giving *Entertaining *Loving
These are probably just a few adjectives that begin to touch the tip of the iceberg. Isn’t it amazing how one person can encompass so many emotions? Yet we don’t realize the true extent of everything a mother does until we are full grown or become a parent ourselves.
If we could pay her $1 for every peanut butter and jelly sandwich she made for us, she’d be a millionaire by now. If we were to count the loads of laundry she washed for us in our youth, we’d run out of numbers. And if we were to return every single hug, we’d be hugging for a lifetime. The pantry and fridge were always stocked, amazing meals were magically presented at dinnertime, and she always predicted any need you may have, even before the thought entered your head.
Wow. Who does that?!
So what better time to honor this amazing woman in your life than Mother’s Day, a day dedicated solely for her. As the Queen of the House and Master List-Maker, a personalized Tablet Set Notepad would make the perfect Mother’s Day Gift. Filled with seven different size tablets, Mom will always have paper close by, or she can spread them throughout the house for whenever an inspired moment hits her. Convenient, personalized and, best yet, made from 100% recycled paper. “Going Green” may or may not be a new concept for Mom, but is oh-so socially chic nowadays.
Another great Mother’s Day Gift idea is personalized Family Pride notes for when Mom wants to send out a more formal letter, whether it be a gracious thank you letter or proper invite to the next big family gathering. With the family name boldly printed on the cover, you know that she will send these notes out with pride.
And when Mama’s happy, the whole house is happy!

I have a great quote I want to share.. I am not sure who wrote it though.
At 3 years ”Mommy I love you.” At 10 years ”Mom whatever.” At 16 years “My mom is so annoying.” At 18 years “I’m leaving this house.” At 25 years ”Mom, you were right”. At 30 years ”I want to go to Mom’s house.” At 50 years ”I don’t want to lose my mom.” At 70 years “I would give up everything to have my mom here with me.” You only have one mom. Post this on your wall if you appreciate and love your mom.

Great blog. Mother’s Day is such a great day to celebrate Mom and all the things she has done for us over the years. What do you think the best mothers day gift is on here? I want to do something different than Mother’s Day Flowers or Candy. Post your ideas!

I would say any of the stationery that looks designer. She will like anything with customization.

Has anyone looked at these expensive websites ? I don’t get it… can someone tell me ? How can a box of stationery with 50 pieces in it, cost $143 ? My friends tell me that the paper is better with this kind of stationery. I don’t buy that. If they paper cost the manufacturer twice as much money, they would charge $10 or $15 more for the 50 pieces. I would understand that. Where does the extra $100 come from ? If I pay $35 or $40, I think that’s expensive for a box of stationery !

It’s like the $4000 handbag. There is no explaining a $143 box of stationery. As Shakespeare said, “… a fool and his money are soon parted.”

I have actually received stationery as a gift last Mother’s Day from my son. I am already on my second reorder. This was the perfect gift for me since I love writing little notes to family and friends. Sending mail communication is still a fun way to talk with friends out of town. Anyone can throw together an email but it takes a true friend to sit down and write a hand written note.

It does take time to write a handwritten note. But the recipient knows that and that’s why he or she appreciates it more.

Lisabella, that’s a very nice series of quotes you provided to us …

Love the quote in comment #1.

Yes, there is a piece of “meditation for mother’s day” that mentions there is no greater love than a mother’s love? When you say love, you think of the most centrifigal force in the universe or don’t you? There are lyrics to a song that are repeated over and over again “what’s that higher love I keep thinking of?” We usually associate strong emotions and strong concerns with the mother. We do not make our mothers the center of the universe but sometimes indeed they are. As we approach another mother’s we’ll probably assess what role our mothers have played in our lives and we have become the people we have become because of what they have done, for what we owe them Some one once said for every smile that we smile, for every breathe we take, for every laugh we laugh somehow, somewhere there was a mother who inspired it with a selfless smile, laugh or a nudge that set a child on his merry way to learn more about the world, to live in the world and then become a part of that world. Mother’s Day is just one day that comes along when it is alright to be overly dramatic.
“What is our life, a play of passion. Our mirth the music of division. Our mothers wombs the tiring houses be where we are dressed for this short comedy?” This is a very good quote to write in your personalized Mother’s Day Card or gift of stationery. Isn’t it true if our mother’s had never had great expectations or great visions of us we would never have had great expectations of ourselves that we achieved or came close to achieving? They have always considered their jobs “nothing much” but with out them where would so many of us be. If you haven’t decided whether you’ll send a note or card yet you have limitless options. Will you send the a single or a set of the Classic monogram, capital, Firenze monogram, Carlson Damask, Three Letter Monogram, One Initial Notes as well as any Eco Friendly counterpart. A One Initial Note is simple, classic, “the absence of clutter,” ” a single initial is stand out” elegant on fine quality paper while “featuring the finest in elegant embossing. A set of 50 that will remind many of mother’s enduring charms.

This is a very nice commentary about life, motherhood, etc. Is that the original quote about the “hand that rocks the cradle” ? I’m putting that in my personal notes and will check it out…

Thank you Melissa from Charlestown! I’m glad that those words resonated with you. As a mom myself, I know what a gift it is to hear those words being uttered by my children
26 April 2011, 10:29 pmCaryn L. D. Skokie, IL
I am just like Bernice — I do my personalized gift stationery shopping at Giftsin24, too. I have done this for two years, now, and I encourage my friends to do the same.

This is the only place to buy personalized notes-and-envelopes stationery that’s made in the old, luxurious, style that I grew up in …
