Mother’s Day. Just another retailer-driven holiday? Or truly a special day to honor moms? However you look at it, Mother’s Day is this weekend. Searching for “the perfect gift” is a hot topic.
Jewelry? A new dress? A hand-made gift from the heart?
Personally, I appreciate breakfast in bed after a full night’s sleep more than anything. With my own mother in another state, the day can be bittersweet. But this year, I intend to enjoy it and relax no matter the circumstances.
Western Union’s new “Return the Love” campaign is celebrating mothers and encouraging loved ones to give them the perfect gift. As part of this campaign, Western Union set-up a Flickr page (flickr.com/groups/love2010) where people can share photos of their moms. Each week, Western Union is selecting photos from this gallery to display on the company’s home page, www.westernunion.com.
Sometimes a gift card or cash is the most practical decision for such occasions. Western Union “returned the love” to me by sending me a Western Union Gift Card and they want Keeping the Kingdom First readers to enjoy a special gift as well!
Enter to Win:
1 of (5) $50 Western Union Gift Cards (can be used anywhere!)

Honestly, I didn’t need or want much for Mother’s Day, but my husband & kids treated me to dinner after church (no cooking — yay!) and gave me chocolates & a pretty potted plant. I sent my Mother some flowers.
I received lovely plants from my children.
