Loving my Kids to Pieces…

Sunday, 11th May 2008 By Jane

I made the most lovely Mother’s Day card last night & couldn’t wait to see my Mum’s response.

Usually, I forget to give her one and concentrate on organising the kids’ gift giving.

To be honest, I’m not even that good at organising the kids with it…

Mum usually gets shoes, slippers and possibly underwear, all of which she had a hand in choosing (if not outright buying).

It’s embarrassing to admit that my mother probably spends more on me for Mother’s Day than I do on her. ~She likes to make sure that the kids have something to give me.

You see, WonderHubby’s not the best at organising gift~giving with the kids, either.

I’ve made a bit of an extra effort this year.

Okay, she still received the slippers she picked out the other day, but I did pay for them for once.

But apart from that there’s a blue ceramic pot, a plant that WonderHubby & the kids bought (see, he’s getting more organised, too!) and a box of chockies I know she’ll enjoy.

But I forgot to wrap them.

And I forgot to show the kids the slippers and chockies, so it was as much a surprise for them as for Mum.

50 posts!But I did better than most years.

On top of all that, I created the beeeeyoootiful card you will get to see later in the week, along with instructions.

Hope you had a lovely Mother’s Day, too. :)
