Hey peeps! It’s Ella, and I’m back to talk about… Mother’s Day! Mother’s Day is tomorrow, May 13, so you still have time to throw together some macaroni art and a handmade card, if you’re the crafty type! I’m not that crafty, so I figured I’d ask around town to see what some other folk were up to to celebrate their moms!
First, I decided to ask former Mayor Cowabelle how she plans to celebrate with her mom, Ms. Cowoline!
ELLA: Hey, Cowabelle! How’s it going?
COWABELLE: Great, thanks for asking!
ELLA: So, Mother’s Day is coming up… what have you got planned this year? COWABELLE: Well, this year, I got that great portrait of us printed onto a blanket!
ELLA: Oh, I remember that portrait… that’s a great idea! I’m sure your mom is going to love it.
COWABELLE: I hope so… actually, now that you mention it, it’s probably ready for me to pick up now. I’ll catch you later!
Do you remember that lovely photo? If not, I found it — maybe you can print it out and write “Happy Mother’s Day” on it.
Next up, I asked Salley Cat.
ELLA: Hey, Salley Cat! How are you?
SALLEY CAT: I’m doing great! I just whipped up some of my famous salsa.
ELLA: Yummy! Is that for a special Mother’s Day meal?
SALLEY CAT: It sure is. I love cooking for my mom. What are you doing?
ELLA: Um.. well.. uh… I’m not that great a cook. But… that gives me an idea! I know just the place to get some tasty food…. Daisy’s Diner! Thanks for the idea, Salley Cat!
SALLEY CAT: You’re welcome!
Of course, I headed over immediately to Daisy’s Diner to make a reservation.
Luckily, Daisy doesn’t require a reservation! I think I just might come by tomorrow with my mom for a nice meal.
As I was leaving Daisy’s Diner, I bumped into Roberta and asked her about her Mother’s Day plans.
ELLA: So what are you doing for Mother’s Day, Roberta?
ROBERTA: We’re having a girl’s day at the spa!
ELLA: Ooooh… that sounds like a really great idea!
ROBERTA: For sure! Present for my mom… and me!
ELLA: Can’t argue with that. We all need a little “me-time”! Maybe I’ll see you there!
I don’t know about you, but a trip to the spa sounds just heavenly. I definitely have lots of ideas for Mother’s Day now.
What about you? How do you normally celebrate the important mother figures in your life? Let me know in the comments below!
Until next time… it’s been real!
XO

One of our sons took me out to breakfast this morning. I’ve gotten flowers, chocolate, and bath things from another one of the boys. One of the kids friends who calls me mom took me out to dinner a couple of days ago so…so far so good!!
My mom said she’s fine with a gift card, so that’s probably what we’re getting her.
Well, at this program I had at the library, I decorated a little wooden flower and pot, so that’s what I’ll give her! Plus, I’m saving for a new, fast laptop, so I saved money. XD
My mom wanted to take a hike and spend some time outside this Mother’s Day, but unfortunately it’s gonna thunderstorm! XO I’m trying to “flatten” some flowers with a big book for my mom. I might put them on a card or something.. I’m not sure yet. I gotta figure it out soon though. XD
I think I’m going to get my mom a new webkinz. because she plays webkinz too!
Yes! Webkinz can be the perfect gift for anybody!!
I don’t know where to mention this so I’ll just put it here. While trying to navigate Webkinz Newz I keep getting an error message … 502 Bad Gateway. I don’t know if it’s a problem on the site or maybe my browser, which is Chrome, but I thought I would mention it in case anyone else is encountering the same issue. And if it is site related I hope you can fix it. :)
I keep getting that error message when I attempt to do the May treasure hunt.
It’s the site, I’ve been plagued by this for days now. Good luck.
I have gotten that message to, kinda scared me when I got it lol
I would always give her a card with some extra cash for her to use on herself only…..Than tke her for dinner or lunch whever she wanted to go. …
In the UK we have Mother’s Day in mid March, so we had ours two months ago.
i miss taking my pets to the spa :(
No idea what we’re going to do, but my son made a point for his pre-moving-to-Helsinki trip home to be this weekend. It’s possible that timing is my gift, and anything else is extra. :o)
Plus the Sun Dragon is FINALLY available, so, gift to myself!
U are so right buying yourself a gift of Webkinz!!! My birthday always close to Mother’s day so if my kids don’t buy me Webkinz then i buy my own for both my birthday and /mothers day. I like buying trading cards too
Happy Momma’s Day roachiesmom~sounds like you did your job as a wonderful mother, giving your child roots and wings! :D
