Mother's Day, 2013. A little book by Maggie....
What is a mother?
A mother is a careing, sweet, pretty, loving, snuggleing person. That's what a mother is!
My favorite time with my mother is...
Going to get our nails done. I loved it and you must loved it too!
[Editor's note--we did this last Wednesday after Field Day and I took the day off work. Haven't done it for at least a year or more before that.]
My mother looks the prettiest when...
She goes to the millitery ball and when you went to heros for children meetings. That when you look pretty.
The funniest thing that ever happened to my mother is...
When you got stuck on top of a fence. That was funny.
[Editor's note number 2--I was either 11 or 12 and I got scared on top of a fence that friends and I were climbing over. All my friends scaled it with no problem. I have a fear of falling. Got to the top and cried immobilized with fear. Girls love to beg "tell us a story when you were a kid." This is a favorite, along with the Christmas tree my mother planted in our front yard when I was in the third grade.]
The most important thing in my mother's life is...
me, Allie and Katie. Espeashily Allie.
My favorite dish that my mother makes is choklet chip pancakes. She makes it like this...
First, she mixes the batter up. Then, she puts the batter on the pan. Third, she puts cholcet chips on it. Last she put it on our plates and we get to eat it! From:Maggie
All of the above came with a handmade card with her handprint coming out of a vase with flowers on the fingers. It says
Love my mom because...
She always lends a helping hand. I love her! It is so good to be her daughter!
Love, Maggie 2013
Tell you what, it is SO GOOD to be her mom!
