My Mom Rocks!

My Mom Rocks! She is the most self-less person I have ever met....every single day she is going out of her way to help others, whether it be for myself, brother, father, aunt, uncle, co-workers, friends, friends of friends, and even perfect strangers.

I am trying to make this Mother's Day extra special for her. I got her a gift certificate for a massage at a local Spa. I want her to take time for HERSELF, and relax.

This is a great, blog. Mom's like mine don't get enough credit.

What a great site! I especially love the piece with Anderson Cooper and his mom!  And it is so true.....Mom's never want grand gifts from their kids.  They want the small things, the special things, that have either been handmade or handwritten.....the things that come from the heart.  These are the things that show you meant enough to them for them to take a little time out to create something special just for you.  These are the gifts that always warm your heart and make you feel loved and treasured as a Mom.
