I never expect gifts on Mother's Day, but I do appreciate how awesome my children are at giving them. This year was no exception. The bouquet of tulips from Cal arrived last Wednesday and brightened our kitchen right away. Meg surprised me with a wonderful homemade present. She had taken an applique from my wedding dress and made it into a jewelry tray for my dresser. It was extremely thoughtful and something that I will be able to use daily. Brett's gift arrived today and I made sure to have it cued up on the record player when Doug got home from work as we had both noticed the latest Peanuts vinyl at the Charles Schultz Museum and really enjoyed listening to it last night. Cameron purchased my gift while vacationing in Traverse City this week. I can't wait to open it when I see him Memorial Day weekend. As much as I have absolutely loved all of the Mother's Day gifts over the years, the best part about the holiday is and always will be being called Mom by the Heinisch four. That is one gift that I will never grow tired of hearing.
