I've been living in bookkeeping hell for the last while (it turns out our bookkeeper last year was horribly incompetent) and then found out this morning that the situation is worse than we thought. In any case, my limited amount of free time to post fun things and to get ready for Avery's party is going to become even more limited (yikes!) but one of my sisters is coming to stay with us for a week (isn't that incredible?!) to watch the kids so that I can work on the bookkeeping thing... somehow I'll have to find time to get the rest done too although I know the postings will take a back seat to everything else, so my apologies in advance.
Since Mother's Day is only a day away I realized that I need make something for my Mom! I tried a kid craft tonight based on a great idea that one of my friends came up with using kids' hands. However, it's still in the beginning stages and I won't know if it worked until tomorrow.... which will be too late for you to try it too. With that in mind, here are a couple ideas that I'll likely choose from if mine doesn't work out!
Fresh Flowers

My mom loves flowers. Rather than buying a bouquet and giving it to her straight from the store, I prefer to do a little rearranging and put it in a vase/container of my own. It doesn't have to be a big bouquet, just a beautiful one. (Ikea & Dollarama have pretty and inexpensive glass vases)
