From Baby to Mom on Mother's Day
For me Mother's Day is the most special day of the year. I like Christmas, Thanksgiving and 4th of July, but none of them can beat Mother's Day. Even to this day I buy a bouquet of pink roses in memory of my own Mother. It's just a habit I can't break.
But what was so special were the hand drawn card and notes I got from my children. The creation of these masterpieces was undoubtably supervised by school teachers, sunday school teachers and at least once by my children's step mom. Each card I recieved found a place on the refridgerator or taped to the bookcase beside my desk.
I still get cards from my kids on Mother's day, but they don't tug at my heart quite as much as the "I love you" scrawled on construction paper. After a time my children wanted to buy me something for Mother's day. Since my husband was the supplier of cash for these gift giving occasions, I suggested coffee cups. Over the years I think I collected over 200 coffee mugs! I even had my husband mount a peg board on the kitchen wall to hang them from. I got a warm feeling every time I looked at them.
A Mother's day gift need not be expensive but it does need to be personal. At Kidoodles by Kim we have lots of gifts for under $20 to present to Mom for Mother's Day.
This adorable photo holder is in our Room Decor Category. She is a fairy princess sitting on her lilypad with 3 wires for holding photos, notes, or keys. Personalize with "I love you Mom" or "To Mom from Baby" and she will cherish it forever.
Loving the kids,
Kim
