A Penguin Present

Last Friday my tribe and I took our annual birthday day trip to Atlantic City. Although we left with empty pockets, my daughter gave me the best present ever.

She said I'm always talking about Penguin so I must really like them. :)


How about you? What was your best birthday gift ever?


Happy Wednesday! :)

Super cute! I can't recall a favorite but I've received a lot of thoughtful gifts over the years. It means a lot when someone gives you a gift that shows they were listening.

A picture of your birth? Very creative, Angela! ;) She must take after mommy.

Thanks, Kelly. She's a doll. :)

We're blessed, Stephanie. :)

Aww...how cute!!!
Oooh, don't know about a favorite. But my friends in the neighborhood took a hilarious picture of me once and printed it out on this paper and signed it like a card for my birthday. I kept it on my refrigerator for a month because it made me laugh every time I looked at it. :)

Happy Birthday!

Cute gift. I love that your daughter thought of what you'd like, instead of projecting her own desires.

I've had a lot of good gifts, but one of the best was for my 29th birthday. My husband asked what I wanted. I said a phone headset so I could call my mother back while doing dishes and running after our 2 year old. Part of the gift was to do the dishes and childcare while I went skiing. I taught myself and now ski every day I can. The skis and boots are almost worn out.

Too cute, Jennifer! I think it's the thoughtful ones we all love.

Hey, Sarah! A perfect gift for a mom chasing after a two-year-old. What a thoughtful hubby. :)

Oh my goodness, that is so cute! And sweet ... that she picked up on you referring to Penguin often and figured it must be a love of penguins. What a sweetheart. It looks like a penguin my daughter got for Christmas!

Keri Mikulski said...

Thanks, Alyssa!

Thanks, Miss Chevious!

We're blessed, Kelly H-Y! :) Enjoy your penguin! ;)

Your daughter is so sweet! Happy Birthday!

There's nothing better than the handmade gifts from my kids. Though the MacBook my husband gave me for my birthday a few years ago is right up there.
