Yesterday was Mother's day. I knew the kids were planning to give me some gifts they made in school. They are getting good at keeping secrets and I did not get a clue about what they were.
A1 woke me up with a bag of cards and box wrapped in some red tissue paper. I read the cards and they were all very nice. Then I opened out the tissue paper and took out the box. My little girl had saved my favorite flavor of macaroon from when we got dessert a couple of days back, and she gave it to me for Mother's day. She had got the smallest dessert, three macaroons while everyone else got huge pieces of pastries. On our ride back home, she had very casually asked what my favorite among the three was. When I said "Caramel", I hadn't in my wildest dreams thought she asked so that she could give it to me. I was so very touched. A1, A2 and I shared it. Never has a macaroon tasted sweeter.
A2 gave me a plant that he grew from seed. He gave it to me in a tiny pot, the handle of which he had made. What an innovative gift!!!
My kids made this mother feel truly special
