May 13th is right around the corner, which means it’s the perfect time to pick up the best last-minute Mother’s Day gifts! No one quite understands the busy life of a mom more than a mother herself — and no one is more deserving of gifts that help her wind down from the everyday mayhem that comes with the title. It can be hard to figure out what to get for the woman who selflessly puts everyone else first: What gift could say “thank you” best?

Appreciation comes in all forms, and even if it’s impossible to put into words how much you love and care about her, these gifts will certainly make her smile. She might be a fashionista, an incredible cook, an ambitious entrepreneur, an intuitive gardener, or a mixture of these and more. We have the bases covered on the last-minute gifts that are special enough to where they won’t feel last-minute when she opens them, whether you’re looking for gifts for your mom, gifts for your stepmom, or gifts for your grandma. (If you’re looking for some of the best subscription boxes for moms — which also make fabulous gifts — we’ve still got you covered.)

She’ll be impressed with her youthful, smooth complexion and feel confident.

Many of us love the idea of being able to keep a journal or sit down and get our thoughts out. But finding the time to set aside makes it less of a reality. The five-minute journal fixes that by taking only, you guessed it, five minutes to do. Gifting her with this journal reminds her to find those five minutes for herself each day, even if she’s feeling overwhelmed. The prompts in the journal help inspire and create an appreciation and gratitude for all aspects of life. It’s a quick way for her to release any negativity she’s feeling and reflect on the positive.
