All I Want for Mother’s Day is…
I read an article that suggested that you buy kids’ books for mom on Mother’s Day. A number of moms took issue with the article and thought it was rude to recommend buying a gift for mom that was really for someone else (the kids). I disagree. Those must be moms with more time, patience and money than I have.
I think buying kids’ books for mom on Mother’s Day is a super idea if you get books that mom will enjoy. Let’s face it, we all have those dreaded books that we just can’t stand reading… I have hidden the dancing pig book (I won’t even give it a nod by mentioning the real title) more times than I care to admit just to have it out of the way. As a mom, I don’t want to spend the half hour before my kids’ bedtime reading annoying books. I prefer to have fun.
So, if my kids decided to buy a few interesting reads to share with me for Mother’s Day, I say “THANKS!” I would love to spend time with my children reading books that we can all enjoy.
