Mother’s Day is just around the corner and historically I get a bit nostalgic and sappy when I’m writing our Mother’s Day blog because Dune Jewelry is such a sentimental gift, especially for Mother’s Day.  Not this year though!  Here’s my no-holds-barred message for you in 2019  – CELEBRATE Mom!

A sentimental gift for Mother’s Day

It’s so easy to bypass or take for granted our Moms on a daily basis because they’re amazingly stealthy warriors, kicking ass at life every day.  They nurture and care for all of the people around them seemingly with ease and grace, and often never ask for help or thanks.  But I’m here to tell you guys, being a Mom is a LOT of work!

The Mom Life

My girls are smart, kind, funny, sweet little maniacs that never stop talking or needing something from me. I’m telling you; I love being a Mom, but my day consists of getting up at 6am, walking or running on the treadmill for 20 minutes, waking up the girls, getting them dressed, making them breakfast, making them lunch to take to school, checking their homework, putting Alexa on the bus and driving Lyla to school.  That’s all before I start my work day which runs until about 6pm or later.

After work, I drive home and immediately I’m greeted by “Mommaaaaa!!!” (which is the best part of my day).  From that point on, one wants to play Barbies, the other wants a snack, then they want a dance party, then they want another snack (never the same thing), then they want to play with their guinea pigs but only if I will play too, then they have their showers, then they need their iPads, then they want a glass of water, then they want milk, then they need help in the bathroom…and then it’s time for bed (thank god!).

The next day we get up and do it all over again.

So, it’s my belief that your Mom and all of the Moms in your life deserve a beautiful day of rest, relaxation, pampering and LOTS gifts on Sunday, May 12th this year. Let us help you find the perfect gift with our Mother’s Day Gift Guide!
