Mom, I Love You

Quick mother's day tip for making Mother's Day Special

Dear Mom I Love You! Aren't those remarkably powerful words? They are also words that we at times forget to say, until it is too late.  But really what is important as we remember this day is that our parents are important people. On this Mother's Day, no matter what you do on mother's day take the time out to do something special for the most important person in your life, MOM.

Now this doesn't mean that you have to do something exotic or extravagant to show your mother how much you love her. It could simply be making her a card, there are some really nice online services that allow you to write your own message inside a card. You could make a card by hand, using some of the really neat stuff from those scrape booking stores that are everywhere. One really neat thing we did for my wife last year was make her a stepping stone. The kids and I went to our local home improvement store and purchases a stone making kit. Then we purchased some other items to add a personal touch. The kids then placed added their own personal messages. The kids then placed it in the backyard and the kids suprised her on Mother's Day. My wife really loved it. Personalization to me is the key.

Take the time, make the moment personal, make it rememberable and most of all make it personal. Happy Mother's Day Mom!
