from Matt & Ezra
For Mother's Day Matt dedicated a birthing kit from the International Rescue Committee to me. I honestly didn't want anything but Matt insisted so I suggested something that would help other mothers. The kit provides blankets, clothes, and other essentials to mothers who are giving birth in a crisis zone to help give their babies the best start in life. I only wish I could find out who the recipient of the kit dedicated in my name will be. Matt also got me this adorable book, I Love My Mommy by Sebastien Braun. Does anyone know why it sometimes sells for upwards of $100? I think Matt picked up a copy for about $15 so I can't imagine why. Anyway, I can't wait to read it with Ezra. By the way, Ezra wrote me a poem for Mother's Day. He's that talented. Now, what to do for Matt for Father's Day...
It's the same with the daddy version. I first encountered the book last year. The grandmother of the baby I nannied for bought it for Father's Day from a second hand store. I read it and thought it was perfect for Josh (from Levi - LOL). I could buy a new hardcover for $10 or a used softcover for $100+. When I got my version, the words were different though (only slightly, but I actually liked the first version I read better). So, it must have to do with the edition. I bet my old boss doesn't know he probably has a valuable edition!
ReplyDeleteThe end. :D
Awww, that's all so sweet!!! But, what, not sharing that poem E wrote?
