My Mother’s Day gifts this year were wonderful – handmade with love!
One however deserves some individual attention…
My 6yo’s first grade class made ‘I love my mom’ booklets, a ‘fill in the gap’ type affair:
I like that he thinks that he looks like me.
Buying me gold sounds good :)
But most of all, I love that he thinks I weigh 2lbs… (but, perhaps it’s time to review the concepts of light and heavy!)
It’s nice to see that he thinks that taking care of the wee girl is ‘hard work’. I remember a friends daughter, describing her mums Marketing job: ‘she drinks tea and eats biscuits’…!?!
But I really have no idea why he thinks I’m good at babysitting… Maybe because I make good snacks and let them play Skylanders!
Speaking of which… the clincher for me has to be the fact that he wouldn’t swap me, not even for every Skylander! And he loves Skylanders :)

OMG that’s my favourite this week! The Bug would so trade me for any Skylander, never mind all of them! Classic #funee
Thank you! Glad you like it :) I have to admit I was rather surprised by the Skylander comment!
I bet the teacher had the best time designing the booklet for maximum fun answerage. :-) That is just brilliant.
I bet he had great fun reading them too :) One to treasure!
How wonderful :) #PoCoLo
Thanks! It made my day :)
It’s funny how children think..glad he thinks you’re the best baby sitter though..#PoCoLo
Thanks for popping by my post too!!
I know – babysitting is something I still feel a bit inadequate at, but I’m obviously doing something right :) Thanks for popping by, and I really liked your post xx
Ahh bless him that’s so sweet! I think it’s lovely when they get to an age when they can make gifts for you themselves!! Xxxx (#PoCoLo)
It was so sweet :) it just made me smile so much! Thanks for reading x
This is oh so cute and oh so funny at the same time. Gotta wonder about the teachers though, why bring up age and weight? dangerous ground ;-)
I know! He, sadly (?), got my age right, but clearly has no concept of weight! Made me laugh!
awww what a really lovely booklet! xxxxx
Thank you – it absolutely made my day! xx
Precious pieces to treasure Popping over from PoCoLo
Absolutely :) straight into the memory box xx
I love that he wants to give you gold….and if it were me, I’d let Grace think I was 2lbs was a little longer! Great post. Thank you for linking to PoCoLo xx
Thank you! He is a sweetheart :) Thanks for hosting xx
