Do you remember all the dump little things you made for your mom for gifts when you were little. I do. It is kind of silly to be like, "here mom, here's a bunch of trash that I glued together as a gift so that you would know I love you."
One of the many reasons I love mothers is because they see your gift and say, "oh, thank you. That's so sweet." And then, they keep that "gift" forever because it actually does remind them that you love them. That is a miracle. Only a mother could love a child enough to answer a gift like that with a sincere, "thank you, I love you too."
Some of the "gifts" I gave my mom:
a noodle frame
a spray painted candle stick holder
a reframed picture of me
tissue paper glued in the shape of a heart
an old fruit basket woven with yarn
homemade peanut butter-jelly-teddy graham goulash
and a lot of scribbled notes and pictures
I love you mom! Happy Mother's Day.
