Mother’s Day is just around the corner. Do you have stories about your mom?

Well, here’s one about my Mom. My mother is one of Santa’s biggest helpers. She may not live at the North Pole or low-ride in a big red flying sleigh (at least I don’t think she does), but she slays it every Christmas.

And like Santa, she has her list and she’s checking it twice. Oh, it’s not a naughty or nice list. It’s a list of all her siblings, their children, and their children’s children.

I know, what you’re thinking. Is she rich? On a soul level that lady has more money than Elon Musk paid for Twitter, but by worldly standards she’s not hurting for anything.

She has a passion for stashin’.

How does she do it? She buys little bargains along the way. Boy, can she find a deal!

A bracelet she found on sale goes into her stash she puts it on her list for her daughter-in-law.

A set of bows she found on sale for her brother’s great granddaughter. Yes, it gets that deep.

A sketch pad and coloring pencils for Aunt Marie’s great grandson who loves to draw.
