Mom-mentos

Happy Mother’s Day! Every year for Mother’s Day, my wife and I send out a Penless message to all our friends that are mothers to wish them a happy Mother’s Day. We use the heart shaped Penless stickers as well as the tulips to attach our video on. It is a tradition that we head down to the beach for brunch and walk along the coast. We always remake the same video each year by writing “Happy Mother’s Day” in the sand. Everyone loves them and it even encouraged other people to do the same thing! Now a few of our friends do the same thing and even do it for other days such as Father’s Day, Memorial day, and Labor day.

It seems like every year I always get my wife chocolates and flowers. But this year I wanted to do something more. On top of the usual chocolates and flowers, I am also getting her a new laptop because we are both teachers and have been using the same computer for a while and it is getting pretty slow. Every time she downloads documents or trys to grade papers, it takes extra-long so I am hoping the new MacBook pro will solve this issue. I also got her a Laptop case because all the carrying back and forth from school to home could cause it to scratch. On each gift, on every holiday, I put a Penless sticker on each one with a picture of us. She loves scanning the stickers and saving them to her camera roll. Penless has helped us keep in touch with many of our friends and has helped each holiday to be a little more memorable.
