My memories of Mother’s Day include making Mom breakfast in bed, or going out to a great brunch somewhere, with flowers and a small gift that shows her our appreciation for all the hard work she does to raise us kids! Now that I am a Mom, I love having my kiddos spoil me for a day. I usually get breakfast in bed, lots of love and super great behavior all day! It sure is a great day! I love the handmade gifts that I am given more than anything, because they show me how much thought a care went into the project! Those handmade gifts are so precious!
