There seem to be a lot of gift idea for moms type lists online that really wouldn’t give anyone ideas for me in a pinch. These are all things that I pretty much consider luxuries at this point in my life and I’m curious if other moms can relate so I made a list lol

Lmao idk what it says about me that the highlight of my entire day was my 11 year old coming to tell me she had an idea for a Mother’s Day tiktok and this was what she wanted to do. The fact that she knows me well enough to know my sense of humor and that I’d think this was funny flatters me idk what to tell you 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

You might have had a horrible mom, a great mom, or no mom at all. You might have just lost your mom, gone no contact, maybe you’re struggling with infertility or miscarriage. Maybe you are a mom who feels underappreciated and unvalued. Or struggling with mental health or physical health and feeling the weight of that stress and guilt. All of the other humans working today are living the same types of experiences as you, only they are showing up to work trying to get through today while holding it together and carrying burdens we never see. Moms are important and valuable in our lives. They do deserve appreciation. One of the most valuable lessons the moms in my life taught me is to have compassion for others, but whether you were taught how to be compassionate or given an example of what it does NOT look like by your mom, put it to good use when you go out and about 😜

Mother’s Day 2026 looks like rewarding my self worth by investing in something we can use as a family to enjoy our time outside together more. Not gonna feel bad about that!

Happy Mother’s Day to myself, because instead of losing myself when I had my kids, I found a reason to get up every day.

It doesn’t have to cost $200 to be precious. Moms are often the ones behind the camera but some of my best photo gifts have come from Walgreens since I was in highschool. We wish so badly we could pause the clock on our babies growing up but having those memories in photos are the biggest mood booster for me when I’m having a hard time. will always be my go-to ❤️

You can try to do all of the things right. I bought tickets on presale, had them ready, baby had a nap, everyone was excited. I don’t even know what triggered this but I feel like I’m upside down on a roller coaster while half numb and trying not to vomit but I feel like an as***le because I just couldn’t get out and walk around right now.
