You also gave me some good ideas for my stepdaughter's birthday (her name's Brittany Jo, but a little boy I used to babysit called her Sloppy Jo! If I were you, I'd buy her a really high quality sleeper sofa because I think you'll need it if you buy her an iron! Okay, I know you're just kidding. I think breakfast in bed is a good idea. But even better would be breakfast in bed, at a bed and breakfast, on the beach, in the Bahamas. Think you can pull all of that together in 6 days? ;)Mostly Sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17049964062885820038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6273380153597715864.post-73774563549963166782008-05-04T12:37:00.000-04:002008-05-04T12:37:00.000-04:00WOW - thanks for the ideas - good ideas!

Let her know she'll be waking up to a list of every reason why you appreciate her as a woman, wife, and mother. Then after she goes to sleep, leave her a card with your list inside.<BR/><BR/>LIST every single reason why you love and appreciate her, even the corny ones. She'll feel very special that you took the time to be creative and surprise her.Kimberly McKayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12221063798391890358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6273380153597715864.post-9207860800080547752008-05-03T17:56:00.000-04:002008-05-03T17:56:00.000-04:00Julie - welcome to my blog!

I think you are all bark and no bite! <BR/> I think you are gonna get her her fav. flowers, and write a very special something, and sit on the porch (or hammock) and stroll down memory lane. Now that would be a nice way to spend mother's day. <BR/>Or you could run an add in the local paper declairing your love for her and thankfulness for all she has meant to you and done for you over the years. That also works. :)Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01411842451151787159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6273380153597715864.post-74718245959623635672008-05-03T17:45:00.000-04:002008-05-03T17:45:00.000-04:00CDC - Mama can bike!

You'll probably BLOW all OUR guys out of the water with whatever you choose to do! Even if you DID buy her lemon scented pledge.

My husband and lost his job when my daughter was 5 weeks old and we were in a money crunch, but he wanted to do something special, so he wrote me a story that I will always treasure. It meant so much to me because he invested so much of himself into it and the story told me how special I was to him and my sweet baby.<BR/><BR/>Other mother's days he has tried more expensive things, but I like simple best.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08276515253263872085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6273380153597715864.post-85574578296194781872008-05-02T20:57:00.000-04:002008-05-02T20:57:00.000-04:00You are SO WRONG - haha.

Accompany it with a poem expressing your love. Then rub her feet when she is done. Make her a nice bubble bath with soft music playing in the background. Iron her clothes for church while she is getting her bath. Take her out to lunch or make her a special lunch. Go for a walk before or after your Naz nap that you both take in HER new hammock. Have fresh squeezed lemonade on a little table next to the hammock along with some fresh fruit. If she wasn't up for the bath early in the morning maybe evening would work better.<BR/><BR/>Hope that helps ;)Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08276515253263872085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6273380153597715864.post-3370773402919901152008-05-02T20:27:00.000-04:002008-05-02T20:27:00.000-04:00Papa, uh...an iron, :shock: and you want a hammoc...Papa, uh...an iron, :shock: and you want a hammock????
