(By Jelina) Nana’s talent show. This is a fairly new tradition but one we all love and have incorporated into my husbands family, too. Every Mother’s Day my mom hosts the family for a grandchild talent show. During the previous few months each grandchild prepares a talent for the show. Not all take music lessons or your “typical” talents..so some have been dribbling a basketball 500x, origami, writing and reading a poem, hula hooping, magic, etc. We usually have dinner and a dessert for this special night, too, and the kids love it. It bonds the grandkids to one another - even if they are very different.

This is a great idea for Mother's Day.

Mother’s Day is about gratitude for the gift of having a mother AND for the gift of being a mother.
From this blog link..."Last year, I stayed up late Saturday night writing letters to my children. I reflected on the reasons I was grateful to be a mother to each one of them. Because I gathered in my thoughts good memories from the past year, I was overwhelmed by gratitude. I remembered moments of pure contentment and even some that took my breath away. The experience was indescribable!"
