In preparation for this blog post (we take preparation VERY seriously around here, as you can imagine), I asked my own teenagers what they would want for V-Day.
Responses included: hair straightening (that’s non-toxic and mother-approved), chocolate, candy and….
a boyfriend.
Hmmmmm.
Here are some other ideas that may be a little more practical.
For the Ladies
I love u wishing bracelet – leave it on until it falls off and your wish will come true.
Cute college sweatshirt – because, as I keep assuring them, they will go to college somewhere!
#2 Plumping Spa Set – filled with peony and jasmine power.
Darling heart earrings
Leggings are always a fan favorite.
and you can never have enough boring black leggings
or fuzzy slippers
For the Gents
Let’s be honest, all Boy Wonder wants is for the baseball season to start (5 days until pitchers and catchers), but in the meantime, some of these might just do.
Handmade baseball/football/basketball/soccer ball with monogram (even a rugby ball for my godson!)
For the Star Wars fan (still), a backpack that gives back.
Or a big hug from your mom is always good, too (and free!)
