Priceless!!

HELLO AGAIN!
ITS MY MOMS BIRTHDAY AND I WANTED TO TRY TO GET HER SOMETHING SHE DOESNT ALREADY HAVE.. WHICH IS KIND OF HARD TO DO THESE DAYS, UNLESS I GO AND PURCHASE A NEW SPORTS CAR  OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. SHE ALREADY HAS A TON OF CLOTHES, HOME DECOR , FANCY KITCHEN GADGETS... SO WHATS A GIRL TO DO? I WILL TELL YOU WHAT SHE DOES- SHE MAKES SOMETHING!!
SO MY KIDS AND HUBBY LOAD UP AND MAKE A TRIP TO THE OH SO FAMOUS WALMART. I ALSO REFER TO IT AS THE VORTEX- I GET SUCKED INTO   IT AND ALWAYS END UP BUYING WHAT I DONT NEED- SIMPLY BECAUSE I AM THERE. ITS NOT WALMARTS FAULT, ITS ME.OK SO WE GO TO WALMART AND I WAS TRYING TO FIND A GIFT IDEA THAT MY KIDS COULD HELP WITH, MAMAWS LOVE THIS KIND OF THING!SO WE DECIDED TO STROLL DOWN THE BEAD ISLE AND IT HIT ME- WE WILL DESIGN MAMAW SHARON  A ONE OF A KIND JEWELRY SET! SO THEY ( MY KIDDOS) PICKED OUT A PACK OF BEADS, I PICKED UP A SPOOL OF ELASTIC CORD AND WE WERE ON OUR WAY!
THE PACK OF BEADS WERE $4.00 AND THE SPOOL OF ELASTIC CORD WAS $2.00!
BUT THE SMILE IT BROUGHT TO MY KIDS TO BE ABLE TO MAKE SOMETHING FOR MAMAW WAS PRICELESS! AND I THINK IT MADE MAMAW KIND OF HAPPY TOO.

IT WAS A INEXPENSIVE GIFT I KNOW, BUT THAT DOESNT ALWAYS MEAN ITS A BAD GIFT OR THAT ITS NOT SPECIAL. SOME OF THE BEST THINGS GIVEN AS GIFTS HAD NO PRICE TAG ATTACHED AT ALL. WE NEED TO NOT FORGET THAT. SO WE ALL KNOW CHRISTMAS IS COMING , AND THERE ARE ALWAYS SOMEONE HAVING A BIRTHDAY , ANNIVERSARY ETC. MAYBE YOUR POCKETBOOK HAS BEEN HIT HARD, ITS OK.  MAYBE YOU CAN PASS DOWN SOMETHING SPECIAL THAT YOU RECIEVED FROM PARENT OR GRANDPARENT AND GIVE IT TO ANOTHER FAMILY MEMBER, MAKE SOMETHING FOR SOMEONE,FIND SOMETHING NOT SO GREAT, OOMPH IT UP AND MAKE IT FABULOUS,MAKE THIER FAV DESSERT, ETC.IT MAY NOT COST ALOT OF MONEY, BUT THE WORTH IS SO MUCH MORE.
