Update: The giveaway is now closed. Thank you everyone for your fantastic comments. Loved hearing about your Mom's notes and words of wisdom, great ideas for what to share in my own boys lunchboxes. Winners will be contacted shortly via email.
Did you know Canada.. There's a fantastic new product from Bazooka Candy Brands that I think is just perfect Moms - Sweet Tweets.
With text, e-mail, Facebook, Twitter, and other tech conveniences, we hardly take the time to write handwritten notes anymore. Still, that’s what makes it even more special when we receive a handwritten note from a loved one.
With Sweet Tweets, you can insert last minute reminders, or simple “I Love You” notes into your child’s lunch boxes, school bags and or camp care packages.
Sweet Tweets are super-fun and extremely versatile, and a great way to make any moment a special occasion! Sweets tweets can also be great to as “forgot about” party favor, placement tags at a birthday party, gift tags and even labels.
Or you can even enjoy them for yourself as you jot down a few “notes to self”!
Created by Bazooka Candy Brands, Sweet Tweets are small, decorated and colorful note cards featuring cute, candy emoticons attached to each. Coming ten to a package, they retail for about 99 cents available for purchase online at http://www.sweettweetsnotes.com/ and will be available at retailers nationwide.

My Mom always put a caramilk cake in my lunch for special school outings since I lived close to my school I came home everyday for lunch.
ReplyDeleteMy Mom would write "love you" on a napkin in my lunch bag :)
ReplyDeleteMy mom always sent a note signed xoxo with a special treat telling me to have a good day
ReplyDeleteDuring my school days my mom would often say to me "don't work too hard". I was studious and I guess this was her way of telling me to have some fun as well.

My Mom used to always tell me to make sure I was wearing clean underwear before I left the house because you never know when you may get in an accident! I still haven't figured out the logic behind that one, but it always makes me smile!

My Mom always told me to leave a mark on every person I meet :)
ReplyDeleteUs kids all look up to my and what she has done for all 4 of us.
ReplyDeleteI remember her saying little things that at the time meant nothing but now as a yougn adult they float back into my head.
One being think before you speak. I have a tendancy to say things without thinking it over. Also, your yyour own person follow yourself not others. I set myself goals and dont let others stand in my way this is how I got through college and continue to set goals for myself.

The greatest gift my mom ever gave me was 'trusting me'. Knowing that she trusted me and believed in me in everything i did, has made me the woman i'm today...i'll make sure to try and do that for my daughter, however hard it may seem-thanks!

Growing up my Mother worked fulltime along with my dad so they weren't around alot. We kind of did some things for ourself. But I remeber both of my parents encourageing us to be the best we could and to set goals and strive to get there!
