Happy Mama's Day Surprise

"I'd love to receive beautiful flowers, tasty chocolates, even floating balloons and bubbly champagne,"  I stated emphatically.  Commercials say don't buy proverbial flowers, chocolates, and the like.  I say, "Wrong!"  What's wrong with flowers and chocolate?

Out with friends the other day, we were talking about gifts for weddings, graduations, and other occasions.  Mother's Day came up.  I commented that I don't need gizmos and gadgets.  Don't need anything at all.  BUT IT'D BE NICE to be surprised.

My husband was there, and he paid attention!!

No, I'm not particularly materialistic; I don't like clutter.  The less furniture and knickknacks, the less to dust and clean. When it comes to celebrating occasions, big or little, I don't expect or want a lot of stuff.

I suppose I am a lucky wife and  mother.  My boys and husband know me well.  So they don't get me anything huge (or anything at all sometimes).  However, this mother's day, my husband surprised me with all--beautiful roses, bubbly champagne, chocolate covered strawberries, and a floating balloon!

Very thoughtful gifts.

...and there'll be nothing left to dust!!
