I hope and pray that all the Mothers had as nice of a day spent with their children as I did. My Mother’s Day was the fulfillment of one of those “I can’t wait till they grow up and …. “
“I can’t wait till they grow up and talk…I can’t wait till they grow up and are potty trained..I can’t wait till they grow up and walk… I can’t wait till they grow up and go to school…get a job…move out…etc. My “I can’t wait” was having them drive me to lunch and paying for it tip and all!
Although there are times that I long for my sons to be toddlers again, it’s a beautiful thing when they are old enough to appreciate and show
- how much they care without coaxing. I was very surprised when hubby told me that the boys planned on taking me out for lunch and it was a beautiful day with just the two of them. Afterwards we stopped at Lowes to get flowers and of course to Goodwill for the Mother’s Day $5 off $20 sale.

This pallet was $5.00, I guess @DollarTree has to change it’s slogan – “Dollar Tree Where Everything is $1.00”
Here are some cute, inexpensive items that can be purchased, placed in a basket and given as a Mother’s Day gifts.
All of these items are mine – yippee – Happy Mother’s Day to me!!!

After lunch with my sons on Mother’s Day, we stopped at Goodwill in Middletown.
2 pairs of Lee walking shorts – $3.75 each
Pair of new, with tags White Stag walking shorts – $3.75
Malik found a pair of Dockers Mens Slacks for $1.88 and a Sean Jean Polo for $3.75
California Krush sleeveless dress – $5.00
A pair of white flats that will become another DIY project.
