It's Friday night, and you know what that means..
It is time to Dare to Share!
Happy Friday!
Do you have anything planned for Mother's Day? Mine is going to be pretty low key. All three of my kids live in other states, so I won't be seeing any of them in person this weekend. My own mom is also a different state, so I will be some phone calls with both my mom and kids. We will do something with D's mom, so it should still be a nice day.
I am making a project with my grand baby to give to her mom this year. I did not post the project on Etsy yet, but I plan on it at some point once I see how it turns out. She loves to color. I had her color (scribble) on several printed flowers. I will cut them out and have her help me add them on a flower bouquet. One thing nice about a paper bouquet, it will last a lot longer than real flowers. If you do need an idea for a Mother's Day activity, I do have a Mother's Day Treasure Hunt and coupons on sale in my Etsy Shop.
While this week was a quiet one, next week will be a bit more exciting. As many of you know I work as a baby and toddler teacher at a day care. Monday is the 5th annual Day Without Childcare. It's a day where providers, parents, and child advocates get together to raise awareness to show how important affordable equitable child care is for so many families. There are so many families out there that can not afford child care. When people do not have child care, they are not able to work. Pay for child care workers is on the low side, so many people chose other jobs, so they can afford to pay their bills. Many day care centers close because they can not afford to stay open, or do not have enough qualified staff. My center participated last year, and we are participating again this year. I will share more about it at next week's party.
It look's like it is time to get this party started. So link up and HAVE FUN!
Thanks for this party, Pam. Enjoy your calls and mother's day visit with D's mom.

So true that good dependable daycare is a very neccessary thing to have in our society, for both parents and children! Thanks for the weekly link up!
ReplyDeleteChildcare providers provide such an important service for our society and for families everywhere! Thanks so much for all you do day in and day out for the families you serve, Pam! And, thanks for the party, too!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the party. I actually just got back from a Mother's Day weekend get-away. My daughter lives in another state too, so we always meet half way in between for Mother's Day.
