It's very hard to buy presents for my mom. She is the poster child for ADD. I took her to a store ( that rhymes with Whennie's) and told her to pick out 3 things she liked. She started with white jeans, then wanted a tan purse, then jewelry,then shoes.
Needless to say we left that first store with nothing. I took her to three stores with no luck. But alas, we ended up going to trusty Old Navy where she found a cute dress for 10 bucks, a coral blouse, and 2 sets of earrings. The total was 55 bucks, and she was so happy, which made me happy. I then treated her to ice cream which pretty much made her day- as we try to eat healthy. The next day (Sunday) my parents went to church and brunch. After all the festivities, she was pretty tired. The entire rest of week I caught her on the phone telling whomever what she got for Mother's Day. The following Saturday we went out to eat for lunch. She has a favorite Chinese place that is dangerously only about 5 minutes from where we live. So I took her and when the bill came I paid for it and she was so surprised and happy. Simply made me feel like I'd bought her a car or something. Anyway, she had a great time and that's all that mattered to me. BOOM!
I know my sister will probably never read this but I have to tell you I have the best older sister in the world. Being only 2 years and some change older she took on the role pretty serious starting when I entered junior high. Like to the point where she threatened to spank me a few times. I look up to her so much and she and I are like PB&J to this day. No lie. So every time there is a chance I embarrass her on Facebook as payback but I seriously love that girl and will probably go to jail sometime because of her. But I love her and we act 10 years when we get together. So sissy, I love you and can't wait to see you in August!!!!
I hope everyone had a great Mother's Day. Whether you have one, are one, or know a great one.
Sending you glittery sprinkles!!
