Three years ago on Mother's Day, I wa sreally broke and couldn't afford to buy my mama anything. So instead I wrote THIS FOR HER.
Now I put it online every year around Mother's Day.
This year, I also sent her somethin' nice, because I'm slightly less broke ;-)

I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don't want to do that.

Your mom sounds really cool
That really rocks. Thanks for sharing it.
cool... I got this idea from some online friends over a year ago to do a similar thing--writing "thank yous" on slips of paper. Fifty-two of them! And package them realllly pretty and give to mom with the instructions to read one a week.
I finally did it this year. It was fun to think of all the things.
For a mom with children of any age, this is the nicest most treasured gift, like those little handprints and popsicle stick trivets you keep forever. Every mom, I suspect, wishes she could go back and do things differently. This eases those "I wish I had" pangs.
Your mom sounds like a great lady.
