Mother's Day

Mother's day is right around the corner, May 11th for those of you who had to think about it for a second. And this year forgo the flowers or "Mom" printed coffee mug, this year do something simple and from the heart. As a mom, what I think most mom's would like for mother's day is for their work to be acknowledged. Sit down and write your mom a letter. Thank her for all of the wonderful things she has done for you, and be specific...recall some of your favorite memories perhaps always seeing her cheering you on from the sidelines or proudly displaying your artistic masterpiece in her office. Write it out on pretty paper...yes you read that correctly...WRITE with a pen. Personal letters should always be in your own handwriting even if you think you have horrible handwriting, just take your time. I'm sure this will be a letter your mom cherishes forever.
