While I strongly believe that Mother's Day should be every day because we are superhuman, I do think it is important to be showered or shower a Mom in your life with something that they actually want on the one designated day that we do get. Feel free to forward this to someone in your life as a gentle nudge or to get ideas to shop for an important Mom in your life. As always, MacKid has always been about supporting local so all of these ideas are from South Shore businesses! Every item on this list is hand picked by me and is something I own, use, support, and trust!
