I am doing 2 linkys tonight & HAVE TO share the progress of my kiddos Mother's Day books!! L.O.V.E.
First, I'm linking up with Farley over at Oh' Boy 4th Grade!
I found another great linky over at I {heart} Recess that involves making monthly goals! So here's to May!
Ok, so now I MUST share some of the funness going on with our Mother's Day books. In the past I have not been quite as prepared at this point. I would usually just be scrounging around to find my copies for the Mother's Day book. However this year I have had them copied for a week and the covers and first 4 pages of the books are DONE!! The covers have even already been laminated! I changed my original vision for the cover this year about 28 million times before I was satisfied!
This one probably is one of my favorites solely because of her presh pose. I don't know if you can tell or not, but she is totally pointing toward YOU, the reader, who in this case will be her sweet mom!! :)
This weekend, I bought a chalkboard at Hobby Lobby (reg.7.99 plus 40% off coupon = cheap!) and painted it the trim yellow! So Monday I chalked it up & I took the kids pics! They were able to choose whatever they wanted to be on the chalk board. I ended up with 4 different signs, "I love you," "you're a supermom," "my mom's a rockstar," and "world's best mom!" I printed the pics and they began the actual book yesterday. MOST of the kids have completed 4 of the 10-12 pages of their book! Here are some of my favorite pages so far! :)
I mean seriously, how much funnier can it get!! I laughed out loud multiple times in regards to this kiddos writing!! I hope B never writes that my best cooking has to do with the microwave, especially since I use the microwave sparingly!
Love-Bug, I don't know who told you cleaning was fun, but they lied! haha
These two pages were from the same little miss, but I couldn't pick one over the other to share. She is such a hard worker and overall one of the SWEETEST kids I've ever had the privilege of having as a student!!
If you knew this kid, you would totally laugh extra hard because of his personality! Love it!
You can grab this Mother's Day book in my TPT store by clicking below! :)
Wishing you a quick Thursday & Friday!! :)
