Mother's Survivial Kit

SUSAN1722 explains how to make this fun survival kit gift.

Instructions:
"I have a great gift that I received when my child was first-born, it was htis Mother's Survivial Kit. For anyone who wants to use it this way, here is what you include and the poem you use":

• A toothpick to pick out the good qualities in your child.

• A candy hug and kiss to remind you of the power you get from lots of hugs and kisses.

• A button - to remind you to button your lip (sometimes).

• A band-aid to help with all of life's hurt feelings.

• An eraser to erase any mistakes you might make along the way.

• A lifesaver to remind you of the times others need your help, and you need theirs.

• A candle to light your way when things are their darkest.

Every one of my girlfriends now get these when they have a child. I use little tiny baby shower favor bags or boxes and print out the saying on large stickers w/ a baby border. Fill the bag/box with the items called for and stick it on. I also include (at the bottom of the sticker) the baby's name, dob, and vitals....they love them!!"
