Birfday present for me mum
My mom turns 60 this tuesday, the 23rd. She was upset because nobody celebrated her 40th or 50th. But showed me a card her sister sent her and had a rather large smile because of it. Which I thought was interesting.
So I'm going to pull all my talents together (all 3 of them) and make her a book. It shall be called "60 reasons why I love my mom" By me, of course.
I have 4 days to think up 60. and then put them into a book. I already got the book (a sketch book, actually) and some crayons (because I draw like an 8 year old anyway) and some gel pens.
I'm certain she'll love it. But ahhh! 4 days!!!
anyway. If anybody has some creative idea's to help me along, that would be great. I got some books from the library on creativity idea's and stuff. But input would be great.
actually, the assistant librarians at the library thought it was the sweetest thing they had ever heard of (middle aged+ woman).
Anyway, input is welcome.
Otherwise, what is something sweet you have done for someone you cared about?

It is indeed a very nice thing for you to do, and creative. Seems as though we both have Virgos as mothers, born on the same day too. My mom turns 57 on 8/23, almost 60, not quite. We are going to celebrate tomorrow though.
