My Mother's Day from Kass and Kam

I hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day! I will post more about ours later, but I wanted to post about my gifts from Kassidy and Kameron. I LOVE home-made gifts more than anything!! Kameron gave me flowers from school in a little pot he decorated himself... he forgot to give it to me yesterday, so I got it this morning... trouble is, they're alive... for now. With my black thumb it won't last long. That's ok though, I can use the little flower pot to hold something else. He also gave me a card from church and my mom bought him a card to give me. :)

Kassidy brought home a laminated card from school with her picture where she had to write an anagram for the word Mother. This is what she wrote:

Magnificent
Orders pizza
Trustworthy
Honorable mother
Excellent mom
Ready to nap

I don't know about some of those, but man, the O and the R... my kid knows me well! haha

She also made me a card at church with a poem in it. She wrote this all by herself:

You tuck me in at night
You tell me don't fright
You take good care of me
You fill me with glee
That is why you are special
You are the only one I know
That can love me the most.

My mom got my candles and new pajamas from the kids and a pretty music box from her. Frank called for the first time in a long time! The phones have been down a lot lately so it was nice to talk to him! He got to talk to the kids too, so that made them (and him) happy!

Anyway, that's about it! More later...

Awww, what great gifts you got. I love those homemade things. And looks like Kass is becoming quite the little poet like her mom.

Glad you got to hear from Frank too. That must have been a great Mother's Day gift.

Those words from your baby are so precious! As a mama of six, and a teacher now, I have my students write for Mother's Day. I tell them the goal is to make her cry in a good way- and kids totally get that. The words I see from each of them are totally unique and make my spirit melt. I appreciate how much you appreciate the little things about your little ones. I have so many parents who, well, just don't. ~Shanna Marshall

Treasure the memories. I remember when my boys would bring home poems and things they made in school. I still have many of them in my "Memory Box" and we still hang ornaments they made on our Christmas tree.

Those are great gifts! I definitely agree that homemade gifts are awesome, because its like a little piece of themselves that they're giving you!
