Happy Mother’s Day!

I hope all of you are hav­ing a won­der­ful day. I know I am!

My boys got me this:

w2223 large Happy Mothers Day!

Isn’t it cute?

Here’s a Mother’s Day Inter­view from my 3 year old, Declan:

My Mom

I really love it when my mom puts my clothes on.

My mom likes to wear underwear.

My mom always tells me, “Go to time­out.” (Yikes!)

The best thing she does is feed me breakfast.

It makes her happy when we get on our bikes, go bye bye and have breakfast.

My mom loves to relax by sit­ting in the chair and talk­ing to me.

I like it when she reads bed time stories.

The best thing she cooks is pancakes.

When my mom shops she likes to buy food and fabric.

My mom’s favorite house­hold chore is ironing.

My mom’s favorite TV show is Spongebob.

If she could go on a trip, she would go to the park.

I love my mom because she is a good, nice mama!

Thanks to Let’s Explore for the won­der­ful idea!

Thirft Stores

Okay, I’ll be the first to admit that for the longest time I detested thrift stores. Just think­ing of them brought the mothball/sanitizer/old lady smell to my nose and images of peg boards filled with head­less Bar­bies danced in my mind. I hated some of the ugly (to me) clothes that my mom picked out and forced me to wear and there was never any of the cool stuff that all the other kids had.

I’ve decided recently though that I like thirft stores now that I’m in charge of what I buy. Did you know that Good­will car­ries Fab­ric, notions and other crafty bits? Totally! That’s how Mom got me in there in the first place.

These were pan­els that I also found. Declan loves the lit­tle map blankie I made him.
