We’ve been sending my mom and grandma’s some of J’s artwork quite a bit and honestly thought they could use a li
ttle break from it 
They always tell me how much they’d rather get photos than store bought cards, so this year I incorporated our a photo of J into our Mother’s Day message…. with sidewalk chalk! (again, gotta love this stuff!)
You can’t get much simpler than this. J helped by “writing” the letters (scribbling over each one with his blue chalk) and then I coerced a smile out of him and snapped a picture. Notice his hands up by his cheeks? This is what he does when he’s being forced to smile(shhh… don’t tell the grandmas!). I printed the photos, along with a few other favorite shots from the past month and mailed them in place of a Mother’s day card.
