Christmas Gift Guide: 7 Tech Gadgets That Are Perfect for Mom

Buying a gift for your mom is easy. All she really wants is to know she didn’t raise someone so self-centered he can’t even buy his own mother a gift at the holidays. So if you show up with anything at all — even flowers you picked from her garden on the way to the door — she will be pleased.
