Just a couple quick tips for the dads who struggle in this dept. Yes, dads it IS your responsibility to help the kids on this one.
1. Why haven't you made a dinner reservation yet? Oh boy, you're going to be eating at the burger joint now.... here's hoping they have a treat planned there too.
2. Nothing needs to be expensive. C'mon, it's your mom. She loves everything you do. Let the kids loose in the craft store or the bath/body store with $20. They'll come up with something.
3. Card. You need a card. You can't text your mom on this one.
4. Flowers. You can't beat roses in my opinion. Fresh cut, or a rose bush from the garden centre. They're all good. If it's a rose bush the kids can plant it with mom.
5. Rest. Gosh, there's nothing mom wants more that a little break, a book, a nap, some free time. A little peace and quiet in the house. Then it's back to normal - there's no mom who doesn't love the laughter of her kids and a good hug.
Being a mom isn't easy, but loving your kids sure is. I happen to have the two greatest little charmers. They make me melt. Those blue eyes and mischievous smiles.... just like their mama!
