Thanks, Mom

by Sherry Conway Appel

Thanks Mom, for...

Playing a million hands of Old Maid.

Checking under the bed for monsters.

Teaching me to "look it up."

It's the little things that count and so often our most cherished childhood memories are those things for which we can never thank our mothers enough.

This small book pays tribute to all those time-honored motherly duties and kindnesses that we'll never forget, those loving gestures that made us into the sons and daughters we are today.

I had a lot of fun customizing this little book for my mom! It was really good on its own, though, and I enjoyed reading through.

I am a sucker for anything sentimental when it comes to gift giving. It is known in my family that I strive for happy tears when the wrapping comes off and the gift giver see the gift. THANKS, MOM and THANKS, DAD are perfect gifts for Mother's Day and Father's Day that are sure to bring many happy tears to both your parents. There are so many great pages of thanks within these books. You can allow the book to say the things that may be hard to say or the things that are hard to articulate. You can make notes on the pages or write your own notes of thanks on the blank pages and personalize it even further. Plus, you get to sign the front cover to make it special for your parents. I love that there are vintage black and white drawings to accompany the thanks. It is an amazing gift that any parent would love. 5 stars.

With Mother's Day around the corner, it makes the perfect gift -- if I could give it to my mother twice, I would.
