Mother’s Day is just around the corner, and we OTP moms know exactly what we want. Of course, we love the handmade cards by our little ones and the gifts our children make in school. We know it’s the thought that counts — our moms raised us right! But still, it doesn’t hurt to leave some hints!
Scoop Tip: Print this list, highlight what you want, and leave all over your house. 😉
And if you’re looking for a gift for your mom or mother-in-law, here are some suggestions for the special day that should cover all of the wonderful moms in your life.
Shop local, buy local.
