(SHE’S MY FAVORITE GIRL)
As the expression goes, you only get one. Mother, that is. The single most important woman in all our lives. Carried us for 9 months, fed us, bathed us, rocked us, and gave us not only the gift of life but also the promise of where that life might lead us. How in the world do you say thank you? A card? A sweater? A home-made macaroni picture frame? Where can you take her that she hasn’t already been? What can you show her that she hasn’t already seen? Ah, what to do, what to do…
The end result doesn’t really matter because as your mother, she will love and appreciate whatever you do, because after all, you’re still her baby.
So here at eNJoynj.com we have looked at the traditional, the offbeat, and the heartfelt ways you can spend that most special of days. One size does not fit all.
