For you, mom.
That's what our little one said when he put out his fist of dirty, slimy wonder. HIs gift. 1 First rule of gift giving. Give out of thoughtfulness. Give out of love. Like him.
2 Give something they love. I love wildflowers (and I do consider Dandelions flowers and not weeds)...even when they have been squished in the fist of a 2-year-old. Especially when they've been squished in the fist of a 2-year-old.
3 Handmade gifts are often a good gifts. GREAT gifts.
That lovely worm? Our daughter took up her brother's offer to let her hold it. But then he wanted it back.
4 Fourth rule of gift-giving. No take-backs. Except when the gift is a worm.
Happy Mother's Day. Every day.
