My Favorite Birthday Gifts

Here are my 4 favorite birthday gifts. They are worth more to me than gold. They are the birthday cards my kids made for me, and I love them so much I wanted to share them with you.

This card is from Andy. (Sorry, I couldn't figure out how to turn the image!)

 Josh - who apparently thinks 34 is old - wrote: 'Happy Birthday, Grandma'

On the inside he wrote: 'Here's a birthday gift money could NEVER buy!? One Year Grounded Free Coupon (starts now). Restrictions May Apply'.

(This is a joke between us b/c he asked why I never get grounded. When I explained to him that it was because I am a grown up, and that in my house, children are the only ones to get grounded he didn't like that idea and thought that I should also get grounded just like the kids do. He is becoming quite the comedian. His card made me laugh.)

 

This is Sarah's Card

'Best Mom in the Earth!'

'I love Mom'

'What I am giving to you for you(r) birthday is my heart. Happy Birthday, Mom.'

And finally, Elizabeth's card - which made me bawl.

'I love my mom'

'I love my mom'

'So when my mom is with me I am happy'.

'And when my mommy is my best friend'.

'So when she helps me get my shoes'.

'She helps me get my lunch'.

'So when I am gone she is sad'.

'And when I get home she is happy'.

'Love you mom'.

 'The End'

Do I have the BEST, most AWESOME kids in the world? Yes, I do.
