Something Almost Practical

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.

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.

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 Stratford Limousine Service
Founded in 1639, Stratford is a community rich in history and abundant natural beauty. Situated on Long Island Sound, and bounded to the east by the Housatonic River, Stratford has long viewed its waterfront as an important natural resource. The Town's location on Long Island Sound affords residents and visitors alike with two public beaches, five marinas, several fishing piers and two public boat-launching facilities.
Within an hour's drive of New York City, Stratford is the easternmost town in Fairfield County. Major highways such as I-95, Route 8/25 and the Merritt Parkway bisect Stratford, and provide convenient access to the entire Northeast corridor. Sikorsky Memorial Airport, located in the Lordship section of Stratford, remains a hub of corporate activity and provides commuter service to other cities in the northeast. Rail service provided by Metro North with connections to Amtrak further round out an excellent array of transportation choices.
The diversity of Stratford's natural resources is as rich as its cultural heritage, ranging from the 250-acre, town-owned Roosevelt Forest to the Great Meadows Salt Marsh, one of the largest unditched salt marshes remaining in New England and now a portion of the Stewart B. McKinney National Wildlife Refuge. Stratford is host to a variety of cultural attractions as well, including the soon to be revitalized Shakespeare Theatre and Boothe Memorial Park, a municipally-owned park and museum showcasing an assortment of architecturally-unique structures and vast collection of Americana.
