A Mother's Day Conversation

Me: "Oh, Carson, what a beautiful necklace. Did you make that in Primary for me?"
Carson: "Well, um, yes."
Me: "Thank you so much! Can you help me put it on?"
Carson: "Uh, no. See your head is too big and this necklace is little. So, I'll just wear it. Help me put it on, Mom."

Mother's Day Gift Idea

My sister-in-law, Alice Furniss, wrote a children's book, called The Happiest Mommy Ever and it was recently published by Deseret Book. It's super cute and would make a great gift for someone else (or yourself!). Carson loves to have me read it -- over and over and over again! I know you can get it online or at Deseret Book and I also saw it at my local Wal-Mart.

She is also doing a book signing today (Saturday) in Tooele at a children's bookstore called The Purple Cow.

To check out some of the illustrations, go to the illustrator's blog. She has a few recent posts about the book and several pictures of it in older posts.
