Happy Birthday, Mama!

Okay, so it was a week ago... But, I didn't want to post pics until after she had opened up the present!

My Mom turned 50 last Saturday. I toiled over what to gte her and finally decided that making her something was the best way to go. After even more toiling over what that something would be....

I give you - Mama McNally's Box o Love.

I found a cool little wooden box and decoupaged this really perty tree on top.

And then proceeded to fill said box with 50 little cards I made - each one listing a reason why I love her so.

Since she's so far away, we don't see each other too often. So, now anytime she is feeling down or has a bad day, she can run and open up her Box o Love and grab a card to remind her of why she is so fantastic!

Happy Birthday, Mama! I could have written 50 more, but we'll save that for birthday #100. K?

That is a very sweet gift! I may steal it for my mom's birthday this year. :)

BTW, go check out the shawl I made from the thin, thin, yarn that I got at the Scissor Squad yarn swap the one time I went.....
