Hopefully you won't forget Mother's Day is on Sunday, May 13 this year, but if you do, thank God for Amazon Prime and it's free two-day (and sometimes even faster) shipping, am I right? Not only that, but Amazon Prime has a lot of thoughtful and sentimental gifts for mom this year, everything from books to jewelry to plants.

For whatever that special mom in your life is into, I can guarantee there's something on Amazon's vast list of items that will be sure to make her feel loved and special on Mother's Day.

This list has some beautiful sentimental jewelry, funny coffee mugs (for when she has time to drink hot coffee), books and even a special plant — if she's into that sort of thing. You can't go wrong when searching for the perfect Mother's Day gift on Amazon; there are literally thousands of items available at your fingertips. Surely there's something she would love to receive and you can get it super fast.

3Tickle Me Plant
Tickle Me Plant, $17, Amazon Prime
For moms who enjoy gardening and plants (and who don't have a black thumb like me and kill succulents), this plant is really punny and a sweet idea. It's a great gift from the kids to their mom because not only are they "tickled" she's their mom, but this particular plant moves and wiggles when you tickle it once it's fully grown. How crazy is that? Plus it will give the family something to do together that will create memories.
