text: It depends on your mom. For mother's day this year my husband is taking our family to get family portraits done because we've never had them done before. But if he got me shoes of any kind (which I can get any day of the week) I'd be a little hurt. Mother's Day gifts are supposed to come from the heart...something you put thought into rather than something she may have wanted. That's just my opinion though as both a mother and a daughter.
