May means Mother's Day

I know that Mother's Day is coming up fast upon us but I am already enjoying a very special and unique Mother's Day gift from my very ambitious and creative daughter Heidi. She actually gave me this unbelievably darling treasure in March. Heidi isn't your ordinary gift-giver... no way. She has her own special methods of gift-giving: 1) she thinks about you on whatever occassion you should be remebered on but doesn't actually get around to the gift part until much later or 2) she buys, makes or comes up with the absolutely best thing ever but then never actually sends or gives it to you -- basically she can't part with it or 3) is so excited about whatever she has bought, made or come up with for you that she can't wait until the specified event to share her gift. My gift this year came from the #3 category and I am so thrilled with it that I want to share it with you in case you might like to take the idea and put one together for that special Mother in your life. It is a "perpetual scrapbook page"!!! How darling is that!!!??!! It is actually a scrapbook page on a metal magnet board she bought at IKEA. The background designs and words are modpodged on and then the photos of my darling grandkids are just held on by magnets so that I can change out the photos as I get updated new ones. Those cute buttons and beaded flowers and butterflies are the magnets! Those photos look lots better there than on my usual bulletin board -- the fridge. Enjoy... I certainly am!! (thanks Heidi ... I love it!!)
