MOMMY HOMEWORK: HINT! Making Mother’s Day SUPER Special
Wondering what Mommy Homework is???
Each week you will have an “assignment” here to share in our comments here on this site. You will love this-both sharing AND enjoying answers by others. Some of them, I compile into an ebook (contributors can resell as a product of their own–be sure to submit your email and full name when you register so I can credit you appropriately!).
The result is AWESOME! 
We get to know each other…we are encouraged in our journey…and we glean super ideas from other great moms!
Ready for this week’s MH? This is going to be a FUN topic!
Our topic this week is “HINT! Making Mother’s Day SUPER Special!”
Mother’s Day is this coming weekend. This year, I am blessed to celebrate Mother’s Day with my Mom, my Mom-in-Love, step-mom, my daughter-in-love, and our family’s NEWEST mom-to-be, my precious daughter, Elisabeth. Such a special time!
Some of my earliest memories were of my mom standing up and being noticed on Mother’s Day at church. I remember thinking, “OH! One day that will be ME!” My first Mother’s Day was with Matthew in my womb. It was such a special time. It was the beginning of my dream-come-true. Of course, there have been some tough Mother’s Days–when I was dealing with losses of my babies, when Matthew was in Army Bootcamp, and when my son and future son-in-love were both deployed overseas at the same time.
I don’t know what Mother’s Day represents to you. I don’t know if it is a time of sweet celebration or a very difficult time for you. BUT! This year, let’s have some fun with our Mommy Homework. Deal?
This week, let’s help our guys (and little ones) make this weekend very special for us. Wonder how? Let’s chat and share ideas for things that could make Mother’s Day very special for each of us. THEN, pray about what your sweet family could do this weekend to really communicate how precious you are to them. Ready? Let’s do it! Jump in and share….
Ready? Dig in!
Love,
Cindy
