5 Ways in Rockford to Put ‘Wow’ in Her First Mother’s Day

A mother only gets one first Mother’s Day, so it’s important to make it memorable. Here are a few tips to help you celebrate the day with something spectacular.

1. Buy her a MELD Mother's Day Card (and note cards). Designed by local artist Tom Heflin.

2. Brunch at Rockford Brewing Co. on the Rock River.

3. DC Estate Winery

See had to the cork in the bottle for close to a year. Take her out for a glass or a whole bottle at this South Beloit winery.

4. A trip to St. Aubin Nursery in Kirkland, IL to buy a tree or shrub.

Great way to mark your first year as a family and watch the plant grow as your child grows.

5. Spend the day with YOUR mom.

Now that you are a mom, how much more do you appreciate her now? Spend the day reminding her how much she means to you. Then let her enjoy being a grandmother.
