when you were young and have no money yet what did you give your mother

I like this question. One time my mother, sister, and I went to a store called "Family Dollar." My mother gave me a few bucks to get me some candy or something, but I decided to get her a Christmas gift. When she and my sister weren't looking, I picked out a big, black skillet and purchased it quickly. On the way home, my mother saw the skillet and asked why I'd bought it. Innocently, I told her it was her Christmas gift. And do you know what she said? She said, "I don' want that. Take it back to the store." I didn't show it, but my feelings were hurt. I have never bought my mother a Christmas gift since then.

When I still didn't have work, she would only ask for a hug and a kiss from us so I would do that as best as I can. Now that I am somewhat working and earning money, she would say that we should just give her money so that she'll just buy something she likes by herself. Oddly enough, she would just set aside that money we have given her for her birthday and use it as typically as ordinary budget at home, which isn't as ordinary as it might be. (^_^")

hi ritchelle! well, i think i used to make cards for her, or decorative frames, anything that i can create. but when i was in college and was studying in the city and had allowance, i would save up to get her something. but honestly, i don't remember any of the things that i got her. i wonder why. hehe now that i am married, it is usually a cake, a blouse, or just a treat in a fancy restaurant. take care and God bless you! happy mylotting! :D

As a mother myself, I think homemade gifts are the best! I only remember one gift I ever gave my mom (I gave her others but don't remember them). I had $3 and I went out and bought her a salt and pepper shaker. I was so proud of myself. I think she still has those shakers. Oh I just remembered another I remember while I was in high school, I was in the yearbook staff. I was a photographer so one day I took a picture of my moms favorite dog, developed the film at school and made her a black and white 8 X 10 picture of her dog. I did it all by myself and it came really nice. She still has that picture...the dog wasnt so lucky. He was poisoned soon afterwards so I was happy that I was able to immortalize him...at least in a picture!

When I was younger and had no money, i used to make birthday cards for my mom.. i also pick flowers at our garden and wrap them with red ribbons =)when i was in high school and college, i was blessed because my mom's side of the family always gives me money once or twice a month.. whenever there's an occasion(birthday, wedding anniversary, christmas, etc), i usually buy presents for them..

hugs and kisses and all my love

I made cards and gifts for her. Sometimes, I would pick her some flowers, other times, i would make her a special coupon book that entitled her to things like an hour of peace and quiet, a day without dishes, things like that.

At this time I only give lots of affection to him. I know she require affection and caring hand from my side only.
