If there was ever a year to celebrate Moms, this is the year. “Juggling it all” took on a whole new meaning and the world got a glimpse of the woman’s work like never before. Cheers to all the moms who worked from home, tackled distance learning on zoom, bought roller skates, planned drive-by birthday parties, and dyed their own hair in the sink.
So if you find yourself stuck on what to get your Mama this marketplace of local, charming businesses I put together should have you covered. Happy shopping Charmer and Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mamas out there!
