Happy Mothers’ May, friends! Today we celebrate Stacy’s mom. Stacy is a blogger, mom, and perpetual camper! That’s right. I said perpetual camper. She and her family chronicle their camping adventures here: The Perpetual Campers. Check out her site, and read her vignette in celebration of her mom.
My mother taught me to give. Do you remember those green stamps they would give out at the grocery store? Well, my mom would collect them in the little books that they gave out. She would save them all year long. When December came around, she would take all of those books over to the store where you redeemed them and would turn them in for toys. She always worked with Dept of Children Services to “adopt” one family and would give all of those toys to the children in that family. She wanted to give to children when she knew the parents did not have the means to do so. Her heart taught me to give and not look down on others who may not have the same advantages in life!

Thank you so much for sharing my story. I have reblogged it on my page! It was a life lesson that taught me more than I ever expected at that age – to give and to receive! https://theperpetualcampers.wordpress.com/2016/05/03/mothers-may-5316/
