Mother's Day Gifts and Gift Baskets - What Not To Buy For Your Wife

Whether you and your wife have little ones at home or they have grown up and gone away, it is your job to treat your lady right on Mothers Day. After all, she has given you her heart and a lifetime of love and happiness. She deserves to be treated right by you of all people on this special occasion.

So, how can you treat your lady to the day she deserves? By remembering, she is not your mother. Before you wife was the mother of your children, she was your lover. Remember this and you will get Mothers Day right every time. She wants the sweet and even sappy gifts from her children. From you, she wants to be reminded she is a beautiful woman.

To help you out, there are some gifts you might want to steer clear of. The kids might be able to get away with these buys, but you cannot.

The top gifts to avoid when shopping for your wife for Mothers Day include:

Cleaning supplies

Young kids especially love to buy gifts for their moms that can help make their lives easier. These are great coming from them, but not from you. If it is meant to clean, assist with cooking or otherwise organize or tidy a home, do not put your name on it. If you want to make her life easier, hire a maid service instead and present the certificate in a gift basket filled with gourmet chocolate, flowers and other fantastic presents.

Appliances

Small and large appliances are everyday gifts. They are not for Mothers Day from the man in her life. Do not make this mistake what ever you do. While your wife might be a domestic goddess, if you buy her a washer, dryer or can opener, you will soon discover what the wrath of the gods is all about. Think jewelry instead if you have bigger ticket items in mind.

Anything frumpy

Your eldest son might be able to buy mom a comfortable, cotton housecoat with flowers all over it and garner a huge smile and even tears. If you buy the exact same thing, you are soon to see tears that have nothing to do with joy. Go with silk and gift baskets full of special pampering treats like bubble bath instead.

Mothers Day is the time to honor your wife for all the gifts she has given you in your life. Do yourself a favor this time of year and remember your wife is not your mother. Treat her like the wonderful, sexy lady she is and you will have a hit of a gift on your hands. Use a little commonsense and you will dazzle and delight her. She does deserve it, after all.
