Mother's Day Gift Guide

Did you know Mother's Day is just one month away? If you need a few ideas about what to get for you Mom, or what you want, here are a few suggestions to help you out!

Mother's Day Gift Guide

I like personalized gifts for Mother's Day and I love both of these necklaces from The Vintage Pearl! I think the The Key would be a great gift for a mom with only one child and the The Mama's Nest would be perfect for the mom with a larger family.  But they have so many different pieces of jewelry, so if you don't like these two, don't  worry, because there are a lot to choose from.

I got a Mom Agenda day planner for Christmas and I LOVE it!  You can get them personalized with your name and they have a lot of different colors and designs to choose from.  Mom Agenda also has a lot of other products (all can be personalized), like a School Years folio that keeps all of your child's memorabilia from pre-school through high school, chores pads, and grocery list pads, plus much more.  Also, everything is very reasonably priced and they have amazing sales!

How great are these plates?  You can get your very own custom silhouette plate- all you have to do is take a profile picture of your child, send it in along with his/her name, and voila!  I think this would be such a great gift; I just might go buy one myself, ha!

This is one of my all time favorite scents- Amazing Grace by philosophy.  It's light, fresh, and clean and smells, well, Amazing!  This gift set with lotion, perfume, and bath gel would make any mom very happy on Mother's Day.

Mother's Day

I know everyone knows how I feel about Mother's Day, as I wrote ad nauseum about it before. Mostly Mother's Day has always been sad for me because it's just a really big reminder to me of what a disappointment I turned out to be for my mom. She really is a very good and Godly woman who didn't quite get what she bargained for when I can along!

Tomorrow the whole family is going to brunch, so that should be nice. I wish Mother's Day was Daughter's Day and Father's Day was Son's Day. I hate that so many people get excluded when all they want to be is part of the "club." If we did it my way, EVERYBODY would have a day!

I hope that tomorrow is wonderful for every one of you.

The Sun'll Come Out, Tomorrow

Actually, I don't know if the sun will grace me with it's presence tomorrow, but I am hoping and praying that it does. I can't take another day of chilly rain, especially since that means Spencer can't get out and play.

It's about 5pm, and I think she's said my name "Mum Me" no less than 500 times. She just keeps saying it over and over and over again until I can't take it anymore, and then I give in and she ends up getting what she wants. I tried getting her to play in the rain, but she didn't like getting wet or muddy. I can't say I, blame her, I don't like to be wet or muddy either.


My friend Brandi sent me this super cute video as a Mother's Day present, and I think it's divine! Send it out to all the mothers you know, I'm sure it will make their day.


Question of the Day- What do you do with an almost two year old on a rainy day?
