Birthmother's day is right around the corner, next Saturday, May 7th. I'm always looking for something fun and special to send our little guy's birthmom. Here are some pointers and a few fun gift ideas I came across.

Scrapbook of "All the Things I am Grateful For"
A Day in the Life Book
Other ideas:
*Any gift made by the child. Crafts or drawings, or hand prints. Your child can help make a picture frame with their own picture in it, a magnet for the fridge, a special key chain, a plaster mold of a hand print or foot print, or a card with drawings, writing, or "scribbles" in it can be very meaningful. Local crafts stores will have lots of "kits" to help you get started if you can't think of an idea that works for you.
*Give her a ring, locket, or other piece of jewelry which holds a photo of the child, the child’s birth stone, or other significant symbol. There are countless websites that sell such items. One I recently came across that I found to be very affordable and have good shipping rates is found HERE. They have a great variety of jewelry and birthstones. THIS article also shows a lot of unique adoption jewelry available from a variety of companies.
Regardless of what gift you choose (big or small, home-made or store bought) the point of Birthmother's Day is to honor and remember birthmoms, reminding them that they are never forgotten, how special they are, and how much we love them.
