My plan for Mother's Day: No great plans. Even if I buy my mom a gift, it'll be out of her own money so I don't see any point in buying her something! The best gift will be whatever she wants me to do for her. I think it's best to ask her only as to what she wishes me to do that day.

How the recession has affected my plan:Since I'm not spending any money, it's not affecting my plans at all.

Message for my mother: I really love her and care for her. She's the only person in the world on whom I can rely.
