Your Mother

—called to ask if perhaps Mother’s Day could be changed to Monday this year, so as to give you a little more time to choose a gift. She didn’t want to embarrass you, as you’ve been so busy, well, just managing everything what with the pandemic and all.

Being a doctor, I understood immediately. Then I had a thought. 
Why not make it even easier for everybody and extend Mother’s Day? Make it “Mother’s Week” or “Mother’s Month.” (There was then a brief discussion of some things that required nine months to produce a result, but we won’t go into that here.)

We decided on a “Mother’s Day Week,” beginning on Sunday and lasting until we all thought that week was over. (Time is so fluid 
right now.)

So there you have it. With a wave of the ol’ magic wand and some wise words from your very own mother, you are not late. Far from it. 

Well, not all that far from it, so you might want to call the doctor—the Jewelry Doctor, that is—at 415/796-3969 (text 415/596-4244). 

Stuller, as you may know, is up and running.  So if you think your mom would like gold or silver jewelry (or platinum or diamond), here’s their Mother’s Day brochure. 
  
If your mom’s taste leans toward handcrafted jewelry, our pendants, necklaces, earrings and bracelets get rave reviews. Just call or text us and we’ll be happy to send you some pictures. (Feel free to send us pictures of your mom, too.)

Oh, and since you asked, while your mother has every confidence 
that you will yourself select the perfect gift, as you do every year
—she said a gift certificate would be fine with her, too.

“Hooray! What’s that number again?”

415/796-3969. For those who prefer to text:  415/596-4244.

The Jewelry Doctor’s uncle once told her it was snowing so hard 
on the day she was born that he could barely get to the hospital. Note, though, that he did get to the hospital, and her mother did 
give birth, storm or no storm. So a little gift—or maybe a big one
—honey, you can do this.
