This year for Mother's Day, my 4 year old daughter made me the cutest apron in her preschool class. The apron is white and says "I Heart Symbol Mom" and it has a rainbow of colors of her little hand prints all over the front of it. It was so sweet it almost made me cry.
These are the precious little things you get over the years that mean so much, especially once your little ones have grown up and had families of their own.
I know my oldest child is now 18 years old, they grow so fast. I always keep their little gifts they have made for me through the years and I frame alot of their artwork so I have it forever.
(I am so sentimental!)
Did you get something cute like this for Mother's Day? I think it is so much better to get something made with their little hands than it is to get something like jewelry or something.
Have a great day and happy myLotting!!!

That would be the best gift she could have given me. There the sweetest at making gifts for us parents. I got my mother a shirt made with all he grand kids on it.

Nope, I did not get anything cute for Mother's Day, this year. I do know what you mean about saving things. I actually framed a third grade art project my son did. His sister did one very similar, but on smaller paper, framed those also. Nice grouping.

I have many things my boys made me--cups, bowls, jewelry, those precious handprints! I have a necklace I wear that says "I (heart) Mom" that they gave me for Christmas one year from the secret Santa shop, they went halves on it. It's one of my most precious possessions, second only to their little handprints.

My sons worked together to give me this very special gift for Mother's Day. It's their rendition of 'Bill and Ted' from "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure". They bought me a beautiful frame to put it in. The frame has leaves etched into it (I love nature) with the word "Family" imprinted. It's the best gift I've ever received, well, one of them.
I have a cedar chest full of things they made for me all through the years. I'm probably as sentimental as you. It never dwindles, either. My sons are now 25 and soon-to-be 28 and I still cherish the gifts they give me, especially when they are "custom made", like this photo.

Now that I've posted my response, I can see that beautiful apron! (I answered from an email.)
It's adorable! THAT'S the kind of gift that stays precious forever. I have my boys' handprints in clay from when they were little and I always found the perfect spot on my wall for them, no matter how many times I've moved.
