The Happy Thread

[Amy :-)]

Cookie, thats so sweet

Astarra, I can't wait to hear what the girls have for you

Okay, well, I'm even happier than I was earlier when I posted Because....

1. After discovering that I left my wallet in mum's car I remembered that I had $100 stashed away in a jar in my room
2. I had a great shift at work
3. When I went to the shop to buy the clock on my way home from work, I discovered that the teapot was actually a funny orange colour and only looked red in the photo But then I saw something even better
4. I asked the lady at the shop how much the clocks were, and would you believe they were $99 each
5. So I now have the MOST PERFECT mother's day gift, and I'm so excited, but the lady in the store gift wrapped it for me so you will all have to wait until Sunday to see it after my mum opens it

great bunch of happies Amy ;D

my day spa and afternoon tea was wonderful and since Lily thought today is mothers day I had to open her present when we got home they painted a wooden jewelry tree and made a bracelet its gorgeous ;D

Opening the gift early may be a blessing Suzanne. I can remember being woken at the "crack of dawn" to open Mothers' Day gifts. It was hard to be inspired when it was still pitch dark, but I think I managed.

true cookie although she isn't one to get up early even last Christmas we had to wake her up, ds7 though would which is why I've asked him not to wake up before the sun

[Amy :-)]

I remember getting up early for Christmas, Easter, Mother's day, and any morning after I had lost a tooth

I might drag mum out of bed early tomorrow morning beccause I'm so excited to give her this present!!!

or you could give it to her tonight and she can have a sleep in 

[Amy :-)]

A very practical solution Suzanne I will ask her

[astarra]

Can't wait to see what you got her Amy

I ended up with 2 bags of homemade cards, pictures, collages, notes etc, and a home(well, school) made photo frame with a photo of Miss6 in it, a shop bag which says "Number 1 mum- cuz you deserve the best" on it and a door hanger which says "Mum's day off- in case of emergancy see Dad!" (could be handy I reckon!  ) , some choc truffles (also school made) and 6 serving dishes they had seen me eyeing off! So I am one very lucky and very happy Mum!!!

I got 1 dozen roses on Friday.... love roses. Thank you  DH


The kids did me cards and drawings at school with coffee sachets in them.


Much prefer home made drawings and cuddles than material things

happy mothers day everyone

ds7 made me a folder to put 'very important ' papers in
ds 11 gave me a voucher that I can use at any time with 3 options wash dishes (we have a dishwasher), head massage from him or  he has a computer free day
dd20 gave me a pair of Peter Alexander pajamas too and a bunch of flowers;D;D

[Amy :-)]

Astarra, wow!!! I bet the girls were excited to give everything to you

Suzanne, I used to make those vouchers for my mum too, they were always popular

Here is the clock I bought for mum, I wish I could've made it myself!
