Celebrating Mother's Day


Happy Monday! Mother's Day is less than 1 week away now & I wanted to share 10 Memorable Ways you can celebrate Mother's Day this year:

1. Create a memory jar. Fill a jar with handwritten memories or pictures that you and Mom can sit and go through together.

2. Interview the children in your family (both young and old) on what special things they love most about their mother. Record the sentiments on video & present to her on Mother's Day.

3. Give her a Mother's Book. A special book where she can record her memories & life history. What a wonderful keepsake that will make for you some day! I gave one to my Dad and he had written very little in it before he passed away. It is now very special to me.

4. Clean house or run errands for your Mom.

5. Take Mom out to lunch, or cook her favorite meal at home, and place fresh flowers on the table.

6. If you have siblings, get together and each of you make handmade cards writing your favoite memories of her in them.

7. Send flowers.

8. Get a picture frame, all her kids can write messages on the frame, and put a favorite picture in it.

9. Simply spend time reflecting on family photo albums & videos with Mom.

10. Don't let Mother's Day go by without telling your Mom how much you love her!

My Mom, my kids, and I a few years ago....
Please share any Mother's Day ideas or traditions you may have!

P.S. If you are here looking for Mamalicious Monday, I will not be doing it anymore. I ran out of sponsors for the giveaways. I also felt bad for the sponsors cuz there were only 11 entries or so each week. So, thanks to all of you who participated & have a blessed day! :)
