What are some good ideas for Mommy's first mothers day?

I want this to be something that she will always remember. I did the SPA thing recently for her birthday. I am leaning toward Jewelry,Flowers and lunch with some friends...Any ideas to make this day extra special?

What are some good ideas for Mommy's first mothers day?
if you can manage it, sneak the baby out and have special portrait taken to surprise her. I love Mommy jewelery. Normally I don't wear a lot of Jewelery, but Love the mommy stuff. A locket is nice. a really nice bangle bracelet that can be inscribed on the inside is good too. A friend of mine got his wife and add-a pearl necklace and he gives her a pearl every mothers day ( along with dinner and flowers). I love to garden and My husband plants me a new rose bush every mothers day. I have a very nice rose garden now and everytime I look at it I am reminded of my kids. It's even more special becuase my Husband HATES yard work, so for him to do something like that is a big deal. With out knowing your wife, it's really hard to recommend anything specific.
Reply:If you have children since it is mothers day a professional portrait of the kids or even a shirt or mug something with the kids pictures and if there old enough let them make her something that will last forever. Also you can let the kids by her a rose bush to plant so every year when the roses grow she will remember that mothers day and the kids. Just some ideas I know as a mother I love all these things. Good Luck!!!
Reply:There was a similar question posted on ParentsConnect about just that! I think the answer was really good so I'll share it here: "My advice would be to pamper her by taking care of the baby in the morning and allowing her to sleep in. Breakfast in bed, a foot massage and a chance for a nice hot bubble bath may be in order. You can't go wrong with a beautiful bouquet of sweet-smelling flowers—especially if they're her favorite. Give her a gift certificate for a massage or a mani/pedi so that she will have an opportunity for future pampering."

Reply:For my husbands first Father's Day I purchased some watercolors and a small canvas. I painted my daughters tiny hands, (several times with different colors), and pressed them onto the canvas. I then had it professionally matted and framed. It turned out so beautiful and hangs in my husbands office to this day.
Reply:give her a card from the baby, and they have those clay kits to do the hand/or foot impression (those are neat) give her that as a gift and send her out for for lunch with her mother and you make the reservations so while they are eating you can have flowers delivered!!
Reply:I think you're on the right track. Get something the symbolizes the unity of the both of you and growth.
Reply:I like Sheri and Melissa's idea. Also let her have a a day off. Take the baby for the whole day.
Reply:nice and relaxing dinner would be wonderful, also try a mother and child jewerly.
Reply:I don't know any mom that wouldn't love a mother's ring or necklace.
