Mother's Day Surprise
I got this for Mother's Day along with a big three-ring binder of photos and artwork that my son has compiled all through PRE-K. It was the most touching gift he's given to date, in his five years. Even though his PRE-K teacher orchestrated taking all the pics through the school year and organizing all his artwork, it was still all my son's favorite pieces and shots. I loved it.
I love that he thinks I'm fourteen feet tall, which he says it's all leg by the way. He even drew me that way. I love that he remembers my age and my favorite color. I love that he still loves my kisses. I hope he never outgrows that, but I know he will.
After giving it to me, he told me he loved my hair put up but thought it would be prettier with more ponytails. He ran and grabbed more colorful rubber bands and asked me to put them on in the places he pointed to. "I want a pink one ... there. I want the blue one ... there." He looked at me when I'd finished and smiled, "Now you look even prettier mommy!"
Ummm...I don't think I have to worry about my son's future as a hairdresser or fashion stylist. For one he's all boy and has no tendencies in those areas. And for two, if he thinks this is pretty...he'd have no success in it even if he wanted to.
I look like a sad snoop dog imitator. Be a playah...not a hatah!
PS...yes no make up is not good. This could be an ad for a true wornoutwoman!

Love the pic of your in pigtails,my son likes to do my hair too but usually gets the brush all tangled up in it...can we say, painful?
Happy belated Mother's Day!
Besides.. I touched with the fact that he remembers your favourite colour..
And the portrait of you...that's his perspective of how mummy looks..
You are one lucky mummy!!
The card is so sweet and what your son made you do is even better!
Wish you and your family a great life!
