Daily Wire Moms Share The Mother’s Day Gifts They’ll Never Forget

This article is part of Upstream, The Daily Wire’s new home for culture and lifestyle. Real human insight and human stories — from our featured writers to you. *** We celebrate our incredible mothers all year long, but on Mother’s Day (May 10), we get to do something extra special. From memorable experiences to personal gestures, real Daily Wire moms reveal the gifts that touched their hearts.  Amanda Harding, entertainment reporter Kindle Unlimited, $11.99/mo   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Amazon Kindle (@amazonkindle) Besides the sweet homemade gifts that I always appreciate, the best Mother’s Day gift I ever received was a year of Kindle Unlimited. I’m a huge reader, so this was very thoughtful and personal, and, as a bonus, took up zero physical space, hence keeping the clutter to a minimum. —AH Madeline Fry Schultz, Upstream editor Diptyque Paris hand wash, $85   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Diptyque (@diptyque) The best thing you can get for a mother is something she would really enjoy but doesn’t want to splurge on for herself. My husband recently got me one of my favorite gifts ever (which is saying something!), and it’s hand soap. Yep, hand soap — but the really extravagant kind. Every single day, between diaper changes and washing dishes, I get to feel like I’ve taken a mini trip to the spa with this luxurious lavender scent. If you want a slightly cheaper option, skip the bottle and just order a refill pack to fill up whatever you have at home and enjoy smelling like you’re staying at a five-star hotel. —MFS Melanie Pritchard, business manager A one-of-a-kind standing coffee date Since my son was five years old (he’s 18 now), he has taken me for a coffee date each year on Mother’s Day. He always comes prepared with questions to keep the conversation going. These moments have been my favorite gift, and I truly cherish the time we spend together. —MP Makenna Michaelis, producer Keepsake sweatshirt made with your baby’s clothes, $55   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Dawn Desa (@bee_shiny_tees)   I’m a reader, so “bookish mom” and “reader mom” gifts would be cool: cozy, personalized reading clothes, mugs, or tumblers. This year, I’m sourcing Etsy for the sweetest sweatshirt embroidered with my baby’s favorite clothes. —MM Stephanie LaCroix, associate producer Rest and relaxation I would want a massage. An hour of relaxation away from hearing the word “Mom” or someone needing me for something. My first Mother’s Day, I had the morning with my son and husband and the afternoon at a spa with my sister and mom. It was a perfect balance of celebrating motherhood as a mother and a daughter. I hope to share that with my daughter as she gets older and gets to participate. —SL Johnna Bond, senior vice president of content operations Glass photo prints, starting at $25    View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Aileen Bayliss (@bayliss.storybook) I love Fracture. I got bored of framed gallery walls, but I am obsessed with these. I also recommend Aura frames and the smart family calendar from Skylight with a screensaver that displays snaps of your favorite people. I am obsessed with my cute family. —JB Megan Brock, investigations reporter Family time spent in nature When my kids were two and under, my husband planned a perfect Mother’s Day picnic at a gorgeous state park. At the time, I worked weekends and he had already been on his own with the kids from morning to bedtime on Saturday. Despite being tired, he made the effort to plan and organize a meaningful outing with two small kids — which, as every parent knows, is no small feat! Time together in nature as a family and the thoughtfulness behind it meant more to me than any item he could have bought. —MB Sue Doherty, guest booker A fresh floral candle, $17 @bathandbodyworks It’s officially Lilac Season!
