If your partner’s looking for a special way to show you how much he appreciates all you do as a mother, here’s a great place to start:

1. A custom engraved watch

On its own, a luxury diamond watch by M. LaHart & Co. is a sweet (and chic) gift. Add a custom monogrammed face and hidden inscription bearing a heartfelt message on the back, and you’ve got a constant reminder that the love you share with your mate is timeless (M. LaHart & Co, $525).

2. Hot tub for two

You’re tired and probably tense from juggling a million things at once. You know what would be a dream come true? A long soak in this 2 Person Triangle Spa by American Spas. Bonus: It’s got a backlit LED waterfall for ambiance. Score! Not to mention, it’s à deux capacity is certain to make for some steamy quality time (Wayfair, $3626).

3. A day at the spa

Women try to be everything to everyone. Wives, moms, bosses, employees, teachers, students… the list goes on and on. That’s why one of the most profoundly romantic things you can do for a woman is give her a day off. Unwrapping a spa gift card is the equivalent of unwrapping relaxation.  (SpaWeek, $225).

4. A trip down memory lane

A little nostalgia goes a long way toward winning a woman’s heart. Your Memory Lane uses important places, dates and details — where you had your first date, what day you got married, when your children were born — to create a custom art print that memorializes your love story (Your Memory Lane, starting at $340).
