The Home-Made Touch

For Mother`s Day this year I received 3 cards; one shop bought and 2 handmade by my two amazing sons.

The shop bought one was from hubby and got the kids to sign it, it was nice don't get me wrong but the other two were brilliant handmade creations.

I fell in love with them the moment I opened the envelope.

It melted my heart to think that they had spent time and effort making them at preschool and school, I will treasure them forever.

This is the first Mother`s Day that Jacob has been old enough to really get into doing anything by himself.  To add to the cuteness Jacob at preschool had planted some bulbs and decorated a flower pot for me. They have timed them to start to grow perfectly, they started to shoot yesterday afternoon!!

I don`t think I am ever going to get bored of the creations they make me........Even with the spelling mistakes.

Can you spot it?? xx

  4. The handmade ones always mean so much more because it has been made by their own little hands, they are fab and I'm sure you'll treasure them x

  6. Handmade cards are the best! My twins made me two lovely ones and my step son and his wife too - she makes all her own cards. Very special.

  11. I can't wait till my son can make Mother's (or Muther's!) Day cards, case then when I wake up on Mother's Day morning and realise I don't have one for my own mum I can get him to step in, instead this year she got a terrible one from the co-op! (ooops!)
