Because Mom

Mother’s Day is just around the corner and if you are anything like me, your life is one gigantic moment. You literally are in constant motion. Do not fret though, today I am sharing some great last minute gift ideas that are sure to put a smile on every moms face and touch every moms heart!

I’m going to start with my favorite gift that I have come across this Mom’s Day season and I think the reason I like it the most is because it is the most sincere gift of all. One of the retailers I follow is:  https://walkinlove.com/ .  They actually posted a challenge on their blog, called the “#oneminutemomchallenge”. The purpose of the challenge is for you to record a one minute video to your mom and send it to her and then challenge others to do so as well. We all get so busy in our day to day lives that we lose sight of actually communicating with each other, so I love this idea! The video can be uploaded and saved by moms and replayed nonstop! I can only imagine the amount of tears of joy this challenge will be bringing this Mom’s Day! You can find the challenge through the website: https://walkinlove.com/  , or you can download the walk in love app from the app store on your smart phone, or you can find it on youtube at the link below.

The next best thing to your sweetness, is actual sweet stuff! That’s right, cookies! Mom is always cooking for everyone and never has time to make something sweet just for her. What better way to make her smile, then to send her something sweet! There are some great promotions going on right now at Cookies by Design and they do same day delivery! You can find everything sweet they have to offer on their website:

https://www.cookiesbydesign.com/

15% Off Mother's Day Gifts!

Every mom wants to be spoiled at least one day a year and what better way to spoil them then with jewelry?! It’s such a timeless gift that they can wear everyday or just when they want to think of you! One of my favorite places to get and give jewelry from is Kendra Scott. They are still offering shipping by Mom’s day if you order by today! They are also offering a few specials on their site today and have a variety of gift giving options such as this earrings and necklace set picture below! The link for their website is:

http://www.kendrascott.com

Sophia Earrings and Elisa Necklace Set in Rose Gold

Last, but certainly not least, for those of you that have completely run out of time and options, there is the good old fashioned gift cards! I myself, as a Mom, can attest that I LOVE receiving them! There are literally so many options you can choose from nowadays that you practically can’t go wrong with this choice! From your mom’s favorite Boutique, to Spa gifts cards, Visa cards, Starbucks, Craft stores, I mean you name it and there is a gift card for it somewhere!

I hope this helps some of you out with your last minute ideas and took a little stress out of your life, even if for a moment! I would love to hear about some of your mom’s day gifts, so feel free to leave comments! As always much love and wishing all my mom’s a happy and blessed mom’s day! xoxo – SheShe

 

 

Admin Professionals Day: In Appreciation

My dad had many famous sayings growing up, but one that always stuck with me was, “You should always take care of the people that take care of you.” He was a smart man! As an adult, and a Director of Administration, I know now  exactly what he meant. On the daily, my day begins before I ever even leave the house. Phone calls, emails, text messages…. and then errands before I even arrive at the office. My life is generally a moving target from one moment to the next! That is at best. I try and organize my days and my week as best as I can, but as you all know, life happens, schedules change, issues arise. With all of this being said, I would NEVER get through one single day without the amazing support staff that I have. They are there each and every day, without fail taking care of details that I could never get to, so that I can manage the tasks at hand. My “tribe”, as I lovingly call them, think of the papers that will sit there for a month because they know I will never have the time to file them myself, the data entry that may seem minimal to them but saves me a million seconds each day, the filtering of phone calls so I am not wasting time on sales calls, the creation of invoices so I can quickly log in on the go and pay them, the purple pens (because they know that’s my favorite color) and of course the countless coffee runs to ensure I keep running! The list is honestly endless and I could not be more grateful and appreciative for them. Thankfully, there is a day that is dedicated JUST to recognize the amazing and awesome peeps these Administrative Professionals are!

In todays blog I am going to list a few ideas to help celebrate Admin Professionals Day! Hopefully this will give those of you that have some of these awesome individuals in your life as well, some great ideas to celebrate them!

Tiff ‘s Treats: Tiff’s Treats does fresh out of the oven cookie delivery! This is a great way to surprise them with something sweet for all the sweet things they do all year for you!

The website is:  https://www.cookiedelivery.com/onlineordering/orderlogistics.aspx

     Edible Arrangements: Edible Arrangements offers a healthier alternative, while still catering to their sweet side. They deliver fruit arrangements of all varieties and also offer chocolate covered options as well. The website is:

Hard Work Deserves Fresh Fruit - Thank You Container

FTD Florists: Flowers are always a beautiful way of showing appreciation and they brighten up the day too! If you know what your Admin’s favorite flowers are, make it even more personal. Try and ensure they get their favs delivered to really give them a surprise! The website is : https://www.ftd.com

Gift Cards: Yes, simple and yet so appreciated. The list of gift cards that staff appreciate and would love to receive is countless. A few favs are Starbucks, Target, Chic Fila, and good old fashion Visa/Mastercards. These can be given in unique and fun ways as well, such as in a Starbucks coffee cup, or with balloons and place one inside one of the balloons! Just a few fun ideas.

Breakfast or Lunch: You can not go wrong by bringing the most important meal of the day, Breakfast! How about bringing some fresh baked muffins from a local bakery and some coffee! Or having a hot lunch delivered from a nice eatery? ! More than that, share some time eating with them and reminding them of your appreciation for them!

Cards Or Letters: This is one of my all time favorites. I love giving cards and writing letters to those in and out of appreciation. This is something they can read, keep and recollect on in the future. Absolutely priceless!

Words: Above all else, make sure you verbalize your appreciation. Words are by far the best form of appreciation you can ever give someone. Let the people who work long hours, late nights, early mornings, weekends, endless calls, meetings, through sickness, day after day, without hesitation, know they are important and valued!

And to all of my loyal tribe and to all of you faithful and hard-working Administrative Professionals doing what you do each and every day, I thank you! Happy Administrative Professionals Day!!!  As always, much love and appreciation – XOXO – SheShe
