I was reading Joyce's blog, A Perfect Beginning, and she's just about the most thoughtful person ever. For her birthday, she not only gives out treats, but she has a ritual of giving her mom flowers (carnations in the number of her current age + 1 sterling rose for the new age.) How sweet — moms sure do deserve flowers on our birthdays. I want to adopt Joyce's idea — since having my mom is the best gift. I think I'll go with tulips, which are one of my mom's favorites.
