Re: Spin Off: Mothers Day
As a rule of thumb, I generally don't start buying gifts or cards for people unless it is a tradition I am planning to continue every year. I think it would be odd to get her a gift or card for Mother's day if you are not planning on doing it for her B-day and the other "big" holidays. JMO.

When I was seriously dating DH I bought my MIL a card and a little something. I say go for it, it's a nice gesture.

Re: Spin Off: Mothers Day
I probably wouldn't. If you and your BF see her on Mother's day, I'd wish her a happy one, but I'd save the card and gift if you're planning on it, for her b-day. It would seem a little weird to me I think.

Re: Spin Off: Mothers Day
I sent my FMIL flowers before we were married and we continue to do it every year.
She loves flowers.
On the other hand, my mom loves chocolate so we started that ritual before we were married as well.

I'd give a birthday gift, and if you see her for mother's day, something small.

Re: Spin Off: Mothers Day
I think what I would do would be get her something and tell her it is a mothers day/birthday gift.

Re: Spin Off: Mothers Day
I give her a plant since she loves flowers and can enjoy them for a while.
