I hope you have been enjoying Simply The BEST of 2013!! Now it is my turn to share Simply The Best of 2013-What Meegan Makes. What Meegan Makes started on Dec 27, 2011. Yep, it has been 2 full years of posts, creativity, amazing followers, and lots of fun friendships. Thanks so much for joining me on this journey of What Meegan Makes. It was a very slow start. I was doing blogging all on my own until about a year ago. I “met” some amazing bloggers that invited me to their “groups” and “troops” to help spread the word about my blog. I am SO grateful from them. (There are too many to mention) I am a blessed woman, without a doubt.
I am looking forward to a new year full of ideas, inspiration and a new look. Hopefully, my blog will continue to be a place of inspiration, recipes, thrifting, and wonderful thoughts for you to visit each day. I also hope to make the blog more accessible for all of my readers and followers. It will be a fabulous year!!
Below is the full run down and schedule for Simply THE BEST:

We wrote all the things they love about their mom on Popsicle sticks and placed them in a glittered peat pot, added some lace and a stamped note.
She tucks me in bed
She sings songs
I love her eyes
My mom takes me to Jack In The Box
She is kind to strangers
She cares for me
I love her hugs
She gives me kisses
She gave me 3 brothers
We play board games together
I let them come up with their own ideas and thoughts. Those are always the most precious and thoughtful. After each thought I wrote their own name. We came up with about 50 altogether.
They were so excited to give it to their Momma as soon as she walked in the door, they were giving it to her. Don’t you love the enthusiasm of a child?
This is a perfect gift for a grandma, aunt, or anyone meaningful in your life for Mothers Day. Actually, it is great for any occasion: Fathers Day, Birthday, Graduation, etc…
Super simple and always a treat to know your kids notice the small things you do for them.
What ideas will your kids come up with about you?
You can find more Mothers Day Ideas here and here.
Thanks for joining me.
