Something Almost Practical
Steps:
1. Think about your mother's dreams - imagine what she would do if money were no object.
2. Show up at her home on Mother's Day in a new car and hand her the keys with a kiss.
3. Ask Mom if she's put off a major remodeling job. Hire a contractor to take care of it for her.
4. Have your favorite electronics shop deliver a complete home theater system.
5. Find out your mother's most fabulous jewelry wish - a Rolex, a marquis diamond, emerald earrings. Take her to brunch at a fancy restaurant and have the maitre d' deliver the jewels to her table.
6. Indulge her with massage therapy, a sauna and a complete makeover.
7. Rent a limo and take her to the opera or ballet, topping off the evening with dinner at an exclusive restaurant.
Tips:
Mothers want love and recognition more than they want material objects. The most expensive gift cannot replace a sincere declaration of devotion and appreciation.
Warnings:
Discreetly inquire of other family members before attempting to do anything major for your mother. Major surprises are sometimes unwelcome.

Info for Noroton Limousine Service
The Noroton section of Darien is defined by two peninsulas that claw their way into Long Island Sound, their curved appendages protecting enough coves and inlets to make the area a haven for beachgoers and sailors. From there, Noroton spreads inland across the congestion of the Boston Post Road, then over Interstate 95 and the train tracks into the closely packed commuter neighborhoods of Noroton Heights. It is the water, however, that gives Noroton both its name -- an Indian word assigned to the river along Darien's border with Stamford -- and its identity.
The neighborhood hub is the busy business district across the street from the train station on Heights Road. This area caters to commuters, providing easy access to dry cleaners, a post office, banks, two supermarkets and a new health club. Traffic here has become an increasing problem in recent years, partly because Noroton Avenue, the main thoroughfare running through the Heights, serves as the primary route to both the middle and high schools.
