hahaha sounds impossible…just wondering if anyone has any ideas? I need 00 for my mothers birthday gift. I am 15

xoxo

My mother’s 49th birthday is tomorrow and my grandmother (mom’s mom) suggested we throw her a surprise party Saturday to celebrate since she’s never had a real birthday party before. We’ve taken her out to eat and things like that for her birthday, but she’s never had the cake and the streamers and the whole nine.
Here’s the deal: my mother and my cousin (her neice) will be going to Texas tonight to see one of my cousins (again, her neice) graduate tomorrow. They’ll be getting back in to Georgia Saturday night. My grandmother suggested we throw the party at my cousin’s house (the one going with my mother to Texas, of course) Saturday night, surprising my unsuspecting mother when they get back.
I think it’s a great plan, but I’ve never thrown a simple party before, much less a surprise party!
Her favorite colors are yellow and purple so I was thinking about getting the streamers and the cake in those colors and serving margaritas as that’s her favorite drink.
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I am only willing to spend MAX

If possible, can you give me a good site?

special besides the (write a poem or whatever crap) I just want a nice gift that is thoughtful and meaningful.

I had my daughter March 9th 2009. I raised her alone for almost a year battling her father for child support. On top of that Child Protective services stepped in not once but on three different occasions. I was a single mom trying to the best I could. My mom isn’t really a mother towards me, so I couldn’t run to her for help. what actually happened is CPS took my daughter from me and placed her with my mom. My mom made the first initial call. I was poor and broke, I had nothing. There is a lot more to the story, A LOT more. But what I’m initially saying is, I gave my daughter up. I felt like I was a huge disgrace to her. The only way I thought she’d have a normal life, a good one at that, was if I gave her up. My daughter’s father Jeremy finally stepped in and is doing a good job with her, she also spends a lot of time with my mother, my dad, step dad, and four younger sisters. I decided to take a break and leave to Georgia, I didn’t intend to stay but I did. I felt I couldn’t go back. I felt I wasn’t strong enough to go through it again. I still feel like I’m not strong enough for my daughter. I do want to be apart of her life. I feel so terrible. I feel worthless.

I’m talking to the moms that gave their child up for adoption. Everyone in my family hates me. They are all still mad, I accept that. I can’t find any strength back home. I feel like I’m so alone there with everyone telling me what to do, parenting classes, counseling, be put on phsyc meds, go under a phsyc evaluation. Theres a lot. I didn’t give up on her, I still don’t. I give up on myself.

Has anyone felt this way? I don’t want to battle with taking a pill every morning to make me happy, I’ve been there done that. How did you feel when you gave your child away so that you knew she’d be in a better place? I’m having the hardest time accepting what I did. I want to go back but I can’t. I really cant. There is no life in me anymore. CPS took it out of me, my mother, dealing with baby daddy, my own father, and all the other little problems. I was so over whelmed. I felt like screaming and no one could hear me scream. Or that they did and completely ignored me. Someone please say something….. I dont want to hear how bad of a mom I am, I know that. I just dont have anyone to lift me up anymore.

I had people come in today to give her a manicure and pedicure, they will come and do her hair tomorrow….she is very excited, she has always loved Birthday parties…..she has not been well lately, but her planning her Birthday party has put the sparkle back in her eye….what can I give her? I have thought about this for the last 6 months, everyone has been asking her what she wants and she says 10 more years…..but any ideas on a special special gift for the best mother, grandmother, greatgrandmother, mother in law, friend in the world?

I’d like to send my mother-in-law a set of south sea pearl jewelry. How do I send it from the Philippines going to the US? LBC and JRS Express do not accept jewelry items. Any other courier?

Last year i made my mom a poster with all of me, my brother and sister’s pictures from our whole life on it. It said we love you supermom. She really loved it! But this year i have ran out of creative ideas. Im 17, my sister 13 and my brother 8. We have about 20-30 dollars to spend. Our parents are divorced and my dad refuses to help us out. HELP
