This Casio EXILIM 10.1-Megapixel Digital Camera-Pink is definitely what a busy mom needs in her life...

Last but not least...... I saw this amazing gift idea while reading one of my favorite blogs, Brown Girl Gumbo. The Story of a Lifetime Book is a beautiful memoir for reflection and self discovery. The 384-page book includes a family tree section and about 500 Questions ranging from parental relationships, raising kids, traditions and milestones. This book is perfect for all who want to learn more about Mom, themselves and to pass along their discoveries to the next generation. Ultimately, the gift that keeps giving.... $48, Red Envelope

At the end of the day, gifts big or small, high end vs. affordable, Mom's everywhere will opt for a quiet afternoon with our children, minus all the hoopla and fanfare. I sooooo love being a mom and seeing the smiles on their little faces each day is the only gift that I need....

Happy Mother's Day!!!!
