When I picked Camille up from school Friday, she couldn’t wait to show me what she’d been working on last week – a fill-in-the-blank, multiple-choice book all about her mama. I love it, and I thought it would be fun to share it here, and then answer the questions for my mom, too.
Happy Mother’s Day everyone!

I have circled six words that really describe my mother:
pretty, helpful, kind, loving, creative, happy (glad she didn’t circle “tired,” although it’s true sometimes!)

I have circled six words that really describe my mother:

Three things my mother does for me that I truly appreciate are:

3. Loves my child and husband too, and demonstrates that love in so many ways
I love you mom!
