I am thankful for my daughters' Mother's Day gifts this year. For the first two weeks in May this year, we travelled to Paris. A month ahead of time, the girls realized that this trip would include Mother's Day and planned ahead enough to order an Eiffel tower necklace and blanket and then bring them in their suitcases to Paris so that they could give them to me on Mother's Day. (To be fully accurate, I didn't let Zoey bring the blanket because (without knowing what it was for) I saw that it was taking up like half of her suitcase and vetoed it, but she had fully intended to use half her suitcase to bring me a gift.) I am so grateful at their thoughtfulness and kindness to put this level of planning into getting a gift so far ahead of time, which was on theme for what was happening that month, and then thinking to transport it halfway around the world.
