Mother's Day will soon be here...

It's nearly time for Mother's Day. The only May holiday that is more "important" in Minnesota is the fishing opener, which is also May 12th... Hmmm, wonder if there is some correlation there?

Today, I first want to share my favorite Mother's Day story:

THE MOMMY TEST

I was out walking with my 4-year-old daughter. She picked up something off the ground and started to put it in her mouth. I took the item away from her and I asked her not to do that.

"Why?" my daughter asked.

"Because it's been laying outside, you don't know where it's been, it's dirty and probably has germs" I replied.

At this point, my daughter looked at me with total admiration and asked, "Wow! How do you know all this stuff?"

"Uh," I was thinking quickly, "All moms know this stuff. It's on the Mommy Test. You have to know it, or they don't let you be a Mommy."

We walked along in silence for 2 or 3 minutes, but she was evidently pondering this new information.

"Oh! I get it!" she beamed, "So if you don't pass the test you have to be the daddy."

"Exactly," I replied back with a big smile on my face and joy in my heart.

Secondly, I would like to share some great craft sites with thing to do with the children in your care. These websites contain some great ideas for Mother's Day crafts...
Have a good week and a wonderful Mother's Day...
