Mom brought you into this world. Sis informed you that high-tops were out (and then that they were back). Gram taught you how to write thank-you notes. Now’s the time to show the ladies what a mature, attentive adult you’ve become.

She Changed Your Pampers …
Pamper her with something from RR#1 (814 North Ashland Avenue, at Chicago Avenue; 312-421-9079). A pharmacy back in the 1930s, the space has the look and feel of an old apothecary but is now stocked with perfect gifts like Archipelago Botanica’s soy and rice milk lotions, wallets from Matt & Nat, Chicago’s Snow & Graham candles, and chocolate-covered sunflower seeds from The Cocoa Room.

She Put up with Your Monkey Business …
She’ll appreciate 1920s-style caps and mod woven arm warmers from The Girl and the Gorilla and other cold-weather essentials that’ll keep out the lakefront chill (Robin Richman, 2108 North Damen Avenue, at West Charleston Street; 773-278-6150).

She Taught You That Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend …
Don’t feel guilty if the budget doesn’t allow for them yet. Buy her an agate ring from Gem (1710 North Damen Avenue, at Wabansia Avenue; 773-384-7700), made from a single slab of rock that’s been carefully chipped into a piece that’s smooth on the outside and glittery in the center.

She Taught You That Age is Just a Number …
A spa treatment from Christopher Charles Anti-Aging Skincare Spa (980 North Michigan Avenue, at Oak Street; 312-664-6404) will help her look as young as she feels. The Pleasures package includes a facial, massage, mani, and pedi; the Hydrate package will leave her feeling replenished and dewy. Or go with any combination of individual services.

Now watch: You’ll be the one getting the thank-you notes this time around.
