At the heart of being a mother is, well, the heart.
French novelist and playwright Honoré de Balzac said, ‘The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness.”
In just a few short weeks we celebrate Mother’s Day. Heartfelt wishes are sent to the women who, with all of their heart, have loved and nurtured us, whose heart’s desire is for their child’s happiness and success, and yes, who’ve forgiven us — time and time again. Mother’s Day is the perfect time to let them know you know all they’ve done for you.
Not surprisingly either, considering they give so much and expect so little in return, it is often the simplest of gifts that will make them the happiest. Young Moms love receiving those cute little hand-made cards and crafts adorned with tissue paper flower and stick figures, created by little Lily or Lucas in primary school.
So, why would it be any different as their children get older? No gift is more personal than the one you make yourself. With the lovely backgrounds in these collections you can get started on a variety of projects, such as cards or scrapbooks, designed specifically with Mom’s tastes in mind.
