Whose supersonic hearing can pick up the slightest sound when you’re trying to sneak sweets from the snack cupboard?
Whose x-ray vision can locate that missing knobbly sock with the hole in the heel that you really should have tossed out by now?
Who has the mind-bending ability to remember every family member’s schedule, homework, meetings, birthday, likes, dislikes, friend’s aunt’s name, and what they ate for lunch last Tuesday?
You guessed it… MOMS!
Moms run the world. Moms are the glue that hold us together. Our lives would pretty much fall apart without them. So how do you express your adoration, admiration and appreciation to the one who “brought you into this world and could easily take you out”?
That woman is a saint.
She deserves some serious spoils.

2. Time
Time waits for no mom. At least, that’s how that proverb should have been written, right? Moms are often so busy managing everyone else’s time, that they have so little for themselves.

Finally… an Ode to Moms
She drove you there and everywhere, you mostly drove her 'nuts'.
You went out on those awful 'dates', she always waited up.
She couldn't 'pear' to see you starve, so she sorted all the food.
She even loved your 'fruity' friends, as much as she loved you.
Nothing says "I Love You, Mom" quite like her favourite spoils.
A gift that's full of goodies to acknowledge all her toils.
A way to spoil her rotten for the things she's done for you.
A hamper filled with sunshine from your local Montagu!
