As if you moms are not already beautiful enough, you will receive a spa treatment to refresh yourself during your time in NYC. A few years ago, I had the great fortune of stumbling upon Adeline, a certified practitioner of Burnham Systems Facial Rejuvenation and a licensed massage therapist/foot reflexologist - and I've never wanted to stray back to a traditional spa again. Fed up with the clinical approach and impersonal atmosphere of most spas, Adeline started her own practice out of her very cool east village apartment (she's been living there since the 80's, and she and her husband have worked over the space in a most innovative way).
The hour-long holistic facial is a truly divine experience. Adeline creates a calming atmosphere with mesmerizing background music, candles, and essential oils. The facial involves a hot towel scrub, facial massage, organic products, and even foot reflexology while your mask is on. (Jean can attest to its euphoria-enducing capabilities, as she received one of Adeline's facials during her visit last May.) Your face will glow, and your insides will feel equally effervescent when she's finished with you!
Check out her website for more info on the treatment and to see what other clients have said about her magic touch.

Well I'm jealous. Almost makes me want to have kids so that someday I can have a New York Mom's Wekend of my own!
Sara and Sue,
We are in for such a treat! Anna took me for a facial from Adeline last year and it was fantastic - my first - and she spoiled me for all others I have had since. My own mom, who never gushes, exclaimed, "What have you done to your face! You look beautiful!" Need I say more? I am so excited to have one of her facials again, and that you will be able to go too. Thank you, thank you for arranging for our facials! And for all the thoughtful planning that has gone into this weekend for us. I am so honored and grateful for all your loving attention!
Love,
Jean
I have always thought just being with Darren in New York was about the best treat I could ever have. Going there, meeting his friends and their Mom's, and now being pampered as well! I just don't know how life can get much better? I have only had one facial in my life, so this is going to be a special treat for me. Anna and Jean's description of Adeline's facial sounds nothing short of bliss! Thank you all for being so incredibly thoughtful. Your are definitely The Wonderful Ones!
Love,
Sara
