If you want to go the extra step, decorate the tray with some stickers, ribbons or a bouquet of fresh flowers. You know what they say—you eat with your eyes first.

Words matter too

Even though gifts are a fantastic way of communicating your gratitude, a more direct way is just as important. It doesn't matter if it's not perfect, cheesy or awkward—as long as it's from the heart, your mom will cherish it forever.
