Suggestions? UPDATED: Card Cover, Pg. 2!

Maybe not fun for you, Bri - but yeah, is there a chore you could do that she would really appreciate being done? That would sure be a gift for me!

Definitely a drawing or painting - even if you aren't an "artist" it will mean more to her than anything store-bought with no thought behind it.

Or, maybe you could buy an inexpensive frame at a dollar store, and decorate it with her favorite colors, etc., and put "photo of your choice to come" in the space ...

Or make a collage to put in the frame of you, all your pets - those she loves most in the world, and if you are feeling creative, write a little poem to go with it ...

Whatever you give her, it will mean the most because it comes from you.

This is making me laugh because we were in Macy's and I saw a bracelet I really liked and I told my daughter that is what I am getting from you for mothers day, I bought it and handed it to her and said now hide it until then

One time I got coupons, I thought that was very thoughtful, I also really enjoy poems or things they write that are from the heart.

No matter what my kids give me, I love. I have everything I need so I always tell them not to get me anything. They never listen.

Bri, a nice card with a heartfelt message will mean the world to her. Or....doing someting nice for her will be great also and it won't cost anything. It is indeed the thought that counts.

Bri you are really good with photoshop so why not make a nice graphic and add a poem to it. Print it and frame it. I can be a sounding board for you and we can try to come up with a nice concept.

Or Again with photoshop make up a nice 8 x 10 graphic with small frames and put some pics of you as you hve grown up. And maybe add something like I would never have become the person I am without you.

Let me know if you want to bounce some things off me ok.

All these ideas are really good.. I think I've decided exactly what I'm going to do..

I'm going to photoshop her up a card with me and possibly Roxy and Lily on it.. and then probably write her a poem. She loves my poetry and is always telling me I should be a writer.

Thanks for the suggestions! ^__^

Alright, I finished the front design for the card.. What d'ya think?

I dunno if this would work for your mom, but I went to the bookstore and found my mom a book and a nice bookmark for under $10.
