Mother's Day Ideas

Mother's Day is such an important day for many of our members! We can help to let each mother know that she is remembered. This doesn't have to cost a lot. We can read a poem or a special quote. We could recognize the mother with the most children, oldest child, youngest child or grandchild, most grandchildren, child that is lives the farthest distance away, etc. We could take their pictures and put them on our bulletin board. I don't know who in my group has the most children, etc. Do you? This is a great way to help the group to get to know each other!


Some of you may be having potlucks or special events. Could you share your ideas with us?? We all benefit from working together!

A young girl asks her grandmother, "How old were you
when I was born?"
Her grandmother replies, "Forty-nine."
"Wow, that's a lot of time we missed spending together!"
the granddaughter exclaims.
