Today I'm thinking about Mother's Day. It's just a few short weeks away and I've been trying to think of gifts for my mom and mother-in-law. It's sometimes hard to come up with that special token of your appreciation that expresses all you want it to convey. Some years I'm spot on and others I know I miss the mark. (When you miss, those are times that it's the thought that counts, right?!?) But when I'm on, I LOVE seeing the excitement in the gift recipient's face when they open the box and see what's inside.
Over the years, I've received some great gifts from my son Ian. One of the best Mother's Day gifts I have received from him were my wind chimes. I absolutely love listening to the musical sound as the wind blows. I can sit on the porch and listen to them all day long. I've even been known to reach up and move the weight myself on days when there isn't enough wind to move it. With each note, I think of Ian and how much I love him. Makes me smile every time.
Sometime I'll have to tell you about the VERY BEST gift I got from him and Kayla for my birthday -- but that's a story for another day. Back to Mother's Day~
When I was hunting around the internet for ideas, I came across a couple I thought could be great for the right mother.
What about this hip Sakroots Artist Circle Yoga Sling Backpack that's lightweight and easy to carry. How cool would your mom look carrying her yoga mat into class with this baby slung over her shoulder?!?
So do you have any ideas for my mom or mother-in-law? I still have nothing. Hoping something comes to me soon!
I'll leave you with this video. Have you seen it? I swear I cried like a baby every time I watched it.
