Mother's Day Gifts:
Ken got me a fish and some frogs to swim around under my plant for my bathroom! It's very fun and very creative. My husband is AMAZING at giving gifts - WAY better than I am. I love that about him. If you make the second picture bigger, you can see the froggy at the bottom.
Maren's gift: Maren gave me a candy flower and a booklet of things she has done over the last few weeks to show me that she appreciates me:
Saturday, April 25, 2009: Today I tried to do my assigned job as quickly and efficiently as I could - And guess what - I was the only one who completely finished my job in time. Thanks for letting me go to the play (with Melissa Cloward). I enjoyed it.
Sunday, April 26, 2009: Today I tried to be more helpful with cleaning. Sorry that I totally messed up dinner. I wasn't thinking. Sorry to say, I was just being grouchy because I didn't want to make meatloaf. Thanks for reading Magyk to us. I love you.
Monday, April 27, 2009: Today I was very busy, seems like you were too. It sounds like you and Anna did awesome work at the pear farm. I love you! You are amazing.
Tuesday, April 28, 2009: Your Anniversary! Dad really loves you. Good idea for his presents. I missed you tonight. I wished I could go with you. I made you a present though.

Friday, May 1, 2009: Thanks for coming to stay with us (at the sleepover). I know you got barely any sleep. It was really fun though - even though I'm tired. You were amazing doing round off BHS (Back Hand spring).

Hi Janet,
I found your blog through my mom's (Katherine) and I just wanted to tell you how sweet your kids are:) Especially Maren's Mother's Day gift...how thoughtful she is! You are a lucky mom.

Did you really do a back handspring? You rock! And I loved the notes from Maren--they are a treasure.
