Mother's Day Book

When I picked Camille up from school Friday, she couldn't wait to show me what she'd been working on last week - a fill-in-the-blank, multiple-choice book all about her mama. I love it, and I thought it would be fun to share it here, and then answer the questions for my mom, too.

Happy Mother's Day everyone!

Camille's book about me

This Mother's Day, I hope my mother and I can:
Eat breckfist in bed. (We did!)

I have circled six words that really describe my mother:
pretty, helpful, kind, loving, creative, happy (glad she didn't circle "tired," although it's true sometimes!)

My mom makes "being a mom" look:
like a piece of cake (as opposed to "like it would have its ups and downs" and "like a hard job.")

These are some of the fun things I do with my mom:
watch TV, cook, play games, read

If I were to make my mom breakfast, I would give her this drink:
milk

I would give her this to eat:
donut (she did!)

The last time I hugged my mom was:
this morning

I want to give Mom a hug. I think I'll hug her:
this affternoon

If my mom were an animal, she would be this animal:
a pupy

If my mom were a color, she would be this color:
pink

If my mom were a food, she would be this food:
pizza

Three things my mother does for me that I truly appreciate are:
1. help me writh xthra math (homework)
2. playing gams
3. cook



My book about my mom

This Mother's Day, I hope my mother and I can:
Talk to each other. It's not as good as an in-person visit, but I'll take it!

I have circled six words that really describe my mother:
kind, generous, fun, loving, caring, adventurous

My mom makes "being a mom" look:
like a piece of cake (I know it's not, but she is always so easy-going that she makes all this motherhood stuff look easy!)

These are some of the fun things I do with my mom:
shop, travel, read, go to the beach, go to movies, cook

If I were to make my mom breakfast, I would give her this drink:
mimosa

I would give her this to eat:
pecan waffle from the Breakfast Club on Tybee

The last time I hugged my mom was:
when she visited in March

I want to give Mom a hug. I think I'll hug her:
when we visit in June

If my mom were an animal, she would be this animal:
a unicorn because she's that special

If my mom were a color, she would be this color:
blue like her eyes

If my mom were a food, she would be this food:
salsa, because she's a blend of some of my favorite things

Three things my mother does for me that I truly appreciate are:
1. Makes time for me, whether in a phone call or finding an opportunity to visit
2. Supports me. Whether I need advice or just affirmation, I know she's always in my corner.
3. Loves my child and husband too, and demonstrates that love in so many ways


I love you mom!
