Your ideas are really good and helpful to me right now. I cant seem to get my brain in gear. I love the suggestion of surprise spa treatment! That would be fun if I can keep a secret.What a fantastic daughter you have! Your little story made me cry. How unselfish of her. It is a wonderful reflection on you--what a selfless, giving mother you must be![]()
I think the idea you have for a pedicure is a great one, or how about the BBB?
Or, just spend some alone time with her at WDW...go get a pedicure ttogether. Maybe Set out a special card or note for her to find while there and tell her how wonderful she is. Then, take a walk and just "end up" at the Spa to get the pedi together???....Hmm....I will see if I can think of something else.
ETA- I just read someone else's idea (I hadn't caught up yet....) Seems we were both thinking similar things. How about give her a card, with some special polish (like other poster suggested). Tell her that you two can go take a walk together, just the 2 of you and find the most special place to give each other a pedicure with the polish. So, she thinks she's going on a hunt with you for the perfect place. Then, you "just happen" to end up at the Spa.
Just an idea..........
Have fun!!

I'm glad to know they were good, I want it to be special for her!I think this is a great idea! The pedicure that I got at Saratoga Springs was the best pedicure I've ever gotten. Will you get one with her?
I love these button socks. I may have to case them.Here are the projects I got started AND finished yesterday. I am mildly pleased. The knee socks are my favorite. I used the scrapbooking Mickey button heads. Removed the sticky stuff, and hand sewed them to knee socks. I don't care for My Little Pony in general, but daughter does. It was my first time using Heat n Bond, and cutting out the letter. Pretty simple. About midway through sewing, I realized how stinking big the dress is. Not sure what measurements I was using??Anyway she loves it. It will fit her perfectly when she is probably ten.
And I wish I was being funny when I said that! I didn't even try it on her it's that big. DH said she can wear it as a nightgown. The last picture is my version of the Waldamort dress. It's pretty cute. All I did was add rickrack and an old Mickey head someone sold me. I think it was cut out from a sweatshirt. It's the first time I used E6000. I do think you can glue the kitchen table down with this stuff! Although I used a lot. Do most of you just dab around the corners when you use this? I spread it over the entire back of the applique. I do think the fumes were affecting me. Maybe this is why the Pony outfit is so huge?? So all in all, not a bad day. I sewed , I put buttons on, I ironed, I used Heat N Bond for first time, and used E 6000 for first time. I also cut out material to sew a jumper dress, but then DH and keds and their friends all came home. And of course they were hungry so....I was done.

I'm sure she does it out of love. You must be a terrific Mommy. Definately write it down, something about a handwritten note is just so special and then do pedicure together. Depending on how much she's helped you may want to be more elaborate. As a caregiver for a family member myself I know how much effort goes into it and lucky for her you seem to genuinely appreciate it.
She has been really helpful this year. I feel like the worst mommy of the year


Thank you!I think the pedicure is a great idea! My daughter is 13 and loves them. Give your sweet girl a hug from me. You are so blessed to have such a considerate daughter.

Thank you! See now I hadn't even thought of tea by ourselves at the GF after a pedicure. That would be special. I could give her a card at the tea! Umama don't laugh at me, I hadnt even thought about taking my daughter to tea... My memory is going...EEYORE'S TIARA: I think your daughter is amazing. I can't believe the outstanding children you guys all have. I think a pedi at WDW would be great! Maybe you could make it a day w/ you too. Take her to the tea at GF, it would be a great mother/daughter thing and oh so grown up!! I'm sure she would appreciate the bonding time.
...t.
Oh no, you come in the day after we leave!eeyore's tiara - September 19th thru the 30th. I'm so excited!

i was just going to say how cute these were! Little boys don't have much in custom, so I love seeing these cute overalls!Well, girls, I'm almost done with some outfits for my son and I need some suggestions. Listed below are three overall sets.....Safari, Sorcerer, and Stitch. The Safari and Stitch look a little plain, so I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions of what I can add to spruce them up. I think the sorcerer looks fine by itself because there's a broom added on the back, although I have to add on the handles yet. I was thinking of doing a beach scene with a surf board on one leg for the stitch overalls and maybe do a lion on the back for the safari. These will be cut at a bermuda short length. Any ideas?
I also threw in pics of his necklaces.![]()
