Mother’s Day is the occasion to show how much you love and appreciate the mom in your life but how best to show her how much you appreciate her being there for you during good times and bad, in moments big and small? Whether she’s your mom, your grandma,a new mom, or even an honorary aunt, she’s the one you are constantly checking in with, sharing bits of news, advice or funny moments.
So, if you’re looking for a unique gift to tell her how much she means to you, there’s no better way than gathering favorite text memories, photos and all those countless ❤️❤️❤️❤️ in a beautiful Keepster message book! Not only is it a lasting keepsake, (so much better than flowers that wither and die) but she’ll be able to treasure it forever and ever, and it will also look like it took hours to make, when really it didn’t!
The best part is that since you’ve both already written all the words for your book, all you need to do is pick a photo and the cover color that suits her style. The cherry on the top is that you can even write a personal dedication as your crowning love letter to her!
