A mom emerged from the bathroom to find her sons happily playing in a mess and her house completely covered in flour! All which was caught on video…OH LA LA!!!

“Oh my gosh,” the mom says repeatedly as she pans the room. The flour got in everywhere, including the top of the door.

“Mommy was not feeling well and had to stay in the bathroom longer than usual during which my two boys, ages 1 and 3 took my new bag of flour out of the cupboard and destroyed my house,” she wrote in the YouTube description. “This is from ONE 5lb bag. Don’t believe me? Hand a full bag to a 3 year old and see what happens.”

Can you believe this video?!? What would you do if your sons or kids destroyed your house with flour? Let me know in a comment below.

M-O-T-H-E-R
“M” is for the million things she gave me,
“O” means only that she’s growing old,
“T” is for the tears she shed to save me,
“H” is for her heart of purest gold,
“E” is for her eyes, with love-light shining,
“R” means right, and right she’ll always be,
Put them all together, they spell “MOTHER,”
A word that means the world to me.
Happy Mother’s Day to the mothers, future mothers and single mothers! You ladies rock!

Mother’s Day Celebration Ideas

Just because you’re broke this Mother’s Day doesn’t mean you can’t do something great.

Here are some of our favorite ways to treat your mom for Mother’s Day without breaking out your piggy bank.

Make Her Something

Making mom something says more than a store-bought present ever could. For a crafty person, there are boundless opportunities to make mom something she’s going to cherish for years to come.

But if you’re not so artistically inclined, don’t worry. You can make her a mix CD, Spotify playlist, or load a thumb drive with some of her favorite tunes on it. She’ll think of you every time she looks at or listens to what you’ve made for her.

Cook For Her

Those who know their way around a kitchen have a ready-made way to make mom happy on Mother’s Day. You might have to shell out a little cash to buy food, but cooking mom a nice dinner at home can be done for a fraction of the cost of taking her out to a fancy restaurant.

Best of all, it gives the two of you time together in a comfortable and relaxed setting — just make sure to clean up your place before she comes over.

Go Day Tripping

If you and your mom both live in the same city, taking her on a day trip might be a great way to spend time together on Mother’s Day. Even if it’s just a drive up the coast, a short getaway gives the two of you some time to spend together.

Throw on some music and take the time to really catch up with her en route to a scenic destination and bring a picnic for lunch along the way.

Give Her a Call

In the 21st Century, it’s easier to communicate than ever before. You might text or email your mom several times throughout the course of a week but how often do you sit down and have a conversation with her?

Make it a point to give her some one-on-one time. That’s easy enough – especially in the age of Skype, free cell phone minutes, and VoIP.

Play Maid

How many times has your mother cleaned up after you in the course of her lifetime? Now it’s time to return the favor.

Tell her in advance that you’re coming by with all your cleaning products in tow — and that you’re not taking “no” for an answer. Let her know that this is her day and you’re going to be doing it all on your own, just like she did for you for so many years.

Remember: All your mom really wants for Mother’s Day is a little bit of your time, attention and appreciation for all her hard work. Give her that and it’ll be hard to go wrong.

Happy Mother’s Day!
