As a busy full-time fashion editor and mother of two, I'd love to spend less time doing laundry and working on the computer and more quality time with my kiddos for Mother's Day. Oh, a little more sleep and "me" time wouldn't hurt either!
While I can't wish for miracles, I do know parenting is a wonderful but crazy mixed bag of emotions. It is, by far, one of the most magical, challenging, blissful, emotional, tender, exhausting, and joyous experiences of my whole life. I won't lie: It sure is lovely to feel that little token of appreciation on Mother's Day. While I don't expect anything but plenty of hugs and kisses, I'd be thrilled to receive any of the gorgeous gifts below.
