Mother's Day Inspiration - Isn't she lovely

Today, I am sharing some random Mother's Day Loveliness. I thought we could all share one thing we have learned from our mothers that has made a difference in our lives. Here is mine...

My mother has always been very giving...especially of her time and always includes everyone when she entertains. So, the one thing I have learned from my mother is... {It is always better to invite.} When having a party - what is a few more guests. It only makes people feel bad when they have learned they were not included. (especially children) So I always invite...and in the end I am glad I did! Hope you have time to share your motherly tip in a comment!

I found this great FREE printable Mother's Day Medallion at Frog Prince Creative. Visit this blog for the download!

I found this great blog - 500 Pieces of Prudent Advice for My Baby Daughter. Everyday is another lesson to live by. You must check it out...especially if you have a daughter. I have not had a chance to read through most of the post but I loved #4...

#4 When given the opportunity, wear a costume.

I love any excuse to create and party in a costume.




Have a Happy Mother's Day Weekend!
