She did like it. I feel not as worthless as I felt the other day when I had no resources to do something special

That's a very nice-looking treat for your mom. In my experience, mothers are always tickled by being remembered and having almost any effort expended on them.
You did good!

But yeah I opted in for balloons instead because flowers she doesn't like. They die as she says.

and i think that your mom will love the celebration whether you have resources or not. its the intention and showing of love that counts.

(34,105 posts)I bet it made her really happy. As we get older it becomes less important that our kids get us presents but a little cake, a hat and balloons mean everything to us. It looks like she got some gifts and a card too, you did a great job! I bet she will go to bed feeling like a million bucks. Thank you from this old mom. You did great!

(28 posts)That just has love and thoughtfulness written all over it. I hope you all had a nice time.
Your co-host kinda crashed on the couch before the party even started, eh?
