mom vs. stepmom gift

help! i found a beautiful freshwater pearl bracelet with a silver engravable heart tag that i want to get for my mom and FH's mom. should i get the same thing for my stepmom? i dont want her to feel slighted by getting her something less special. i dont want to make it obvious by giving her something different but i also want my mom and FH's mom to have something really special. should i just go ahead and get the same for all three? any ideas of what i could get stepmom instead if i shouldnt get the bracelet?

Re: mom vs. stepmom gift

Well, it depends on your relationship with your stepmom. Does your mom get along with her? If not, you don't want to upset her by getting her an equal gift. Your mom might feel slighted and you definently don't want that.

Good luck.

I would get all 3 something the same, and then get something special in addition for each biological mother.
