Jeffrey: Pick some wild flowers, get a piece of string and tie them up and bring them to your mama. Then come down to Little Five Points and I’ll have my beautiful little art out on display which you can hopefully purchase. Have Mama walk around a little and hang out. Check out the scene. If she feels threatened or folks make her feel weird, tell your mama to smile, but don’t make eye contact. My mama would enjoy Little Five Points. Just don’t make eye contact, Mama.

Heidi: A walk in Oakland Cemetery. It doesn’t have that atmosphere of death. It’s a really calming atmosphere. It’s like a park. It allows you to think and spend time together because you’re walking through this environment that is peaceful, understanding and historical. There’s a little bird named Tweet that’s buried there from 1812. It’s really a great way to spend a day. Oh shit, now I got to call my mom and tell her I’m taking her to the cemetery for Mother’s Day.

Elvis: If she was still with us, I’d take her to a nice candlelight dinner. Every Mother’s Day and on her birthday I light a candle in her honor and drive around in a pink Cadillac and get in touch with my feminine side. Mother’s Day is very important to me. I know she’s looking down on me. We’d go to Barnes & Noble and get some coffee and read a nice book. Mother loved to read to me. We’d explore different topics together.
