The Perfect Birthday Gift For Mom
This summer my Mother turns 60 years old and my siblings and I want to make it a special birthday for her. I remember on her 40th birthday she had a huge surprise party with a Hawaiian theme that she loved. However, I think it was the actual trip to Hawaii afterwards that she might have loved more.
These days she insists that there be no big surprises and would be content having a BBQ with her children and grandchildren. She has spend years travelling the world and a trip to Hawaii, however nice, wouldn’t be as special to her as spending time with her family.
That is why we have decided to add a more personal touch to this years gift. Since December my Sister and I have been organizing old photos from our family and plan on making a giant photo album that will span from her childhood all the way up until now with all her grandchildren. This personalized birthday gift will add something more than any trip could do.
We will first have all of the photos scanned and then arrange them all in a book to be printed. Then we will create a personalized photo album that I am sure she will cherish.
I hope this story inspires you to think outside the box and make next years birthday gift a personalized birthday gift.
