Hello everyone. I hope all is well with you. I’m back today with another Slice of Life Post. The weather has finally warmed up here in Michigan. I believe our high today was in the mid-sixties, cold for this time of year, but I’ll take it. It’s better than snow and rain.
I hope everyone enjoyed their Mother’s Day. I know I enjoyed mine. My youngest wrote an essay for me and it’s the sweetest thing. Here it is below.
My Mom
My mom is an amazing person. She has blue eyes, brown-gray hair, and a nice smile. She cares a lot for me and my brother. She smells fresh and clean.
One thing she likes is writing. Writing is her passion. She also loves to read books. I also like to read. She also likes getting things for me. Some of her dislikes are junk food, rodents, and getting up early.
A life skill my mother demonstrates is always care for others first. I learned from her that you don’t always have to take care of yourself first.
My favorite memory of her is when my dad was telling her something funny, and she was crying of laughing so much.
When I grow up, I want to be a member of Microsoft. To become this I will have to go to college and persevere.
Now, isn’t that the sweetest essay? It was the best Mother’s Day gift I could’ve received. How about you? Do you have any Mother’s Day memories you’d like to share? Leave a comment. I’d love to hear from you!

“She smells fresh and clean.” I love this line!!!
What a beautiful tribute. He has certainly observed you well and learned some good lessons from you.
Thanks Adrienne! I didn’t realize how observant he was. I’m so proud of my little guy! Thanks for stopping by!
It sounds like your daughter is becoming a fine writer also.
Yes, his teacher has told me that as well, and some of his essays illustrate deep thinking for a fourth grader. 🙂
Lisa, that should make you beam. Just what you want a child to appreciate, right?
Thanks Bonnie. I am beaming. He’s such a sweetheart! It melts my heart. 🙂
The perfect, from the heart, Mother’s Day gift!
Yes! I agree, Tara. Thanks for stopping by!
That is definitely one of those letters you never want to lose. So much more meaningful than a ready made card. It sounds like he knows his Moma pretty good.
P.S. The picture is gorgeous.
Thanks Bernadette! You are so right and I’m glad you enjoyed the picture. 🙂
So sweet. Your daughter adores you, and so she should, as you are an amazing woman, Lisa! I smiled thinking of you laughing so much that you were crying – I’ve been in that kind of situation 🙂
Thanks Christy. Yes, my husband has a wicked sense of humor. He’s always making me laugh! Thanks for your kind words Christy. I appreciate them! 🙂
Lisa, the letter was sweet and you must have been so pleased as it was a special Mother’s Day gift.
I was! Thanks for stopping by! It’s good to see you in the blogosphere!
