Happy Parents' Day Puzzle

[Scrolling Days]

So I woke up early this morning to a surprise.....both the kids decided to declare today "Parents' Day" and spent the week secretively creating hand made gifts. I heard my son shuffling around the house a bit after 6 AM, so I figured he was up to something. When I went to check, he ordered me back to bed, else I'd ruin the surprise. A few hours later, the table was all set for breakfast, there were streamers and balloons up (the balloons were limp, since the kids tried to "tie" them shut with tape, since both were unable to knot them, LOL), "Happy Parents Day" signs, and other goodies. It was a great surprise, and really made my day. My son even washed my car a few minutes ago!!

Anyway, here is one of my gifts. The kids painted cardboard puzzle pieces, and put something they like about me on each of them. Talk about a tear jerker! I haven't had much time to post on the forum the past few months, so I thought I'd share this with everyone.

That's the part of parenting that our parents don't tell us about - when it's fun - it is really really fun. Sometimes life just don't get any better than that!

Happy Parent's Day!

Thanks, guys......the kids are great, and I'm really proud of them. "Parents' Day" was fantastic.

Now......I'm wondering if there is a hidden agenda......I've been hearing mutterings of how there should be a "Kids Day."
