Music for Mother’s Day

Happy Mother’s Day to everyone who cares for a child - all the mothers, grandmothers, aunts, and mentors who delight in a child’s strengths and passions, and care for a child’s hurts and woes.  It’s typical to celebrate this holiday with sweet cards, gorgeous bouquets, handmade gifts, phone calls and brunch. This is a time to tell your mother, or mother-figure, that she’s special. What about doing that with music?  We don’t mean composing a song (although if that’s something you’re capable of, go for it!) but rather mean picking out a music-related gift. It could be something that plays music, or something that looks musical. Rolling Stone has a list of ideas that covers everything from personalized artwork to portable speakers.
