I know it’s a week early for a Mother’s Day post… but what the heck, everyday should be treated as #MothersDay, right? ?Because seriously… where would we be today if not for our mothers anyway?! ??‍♀️ . So here’s what I’m wishing my kids will gift me with : ? Sleep – because we all deserve an extra hour (or two) in bed… . . ? Hugs and Kisses – because no matter how grown up they are now, we still look at them as babies… . . ? A bottle of champagne – because after all our hard work, we need to relax and celebrate too! Am I right?! ??? . And I got these ideas from @winsomebox who can customize whatever you need in one box… Now all I have to do is put a card on it and give it to my kids — so they can give it to me! ??‍♀️ Don’t we moms have that #superpower anyway of always being one step ahead of our kids?! ? . Remember : MOMS always know what’s BEST!?Although on some days, she really has no idea how she’ll do it… but every single day — it still gets done anyway! ?? Salute to all the #supermoms out there! ? . #moms #loveyourmom #spoilyourmom #mothersdaygift #mothersday
