C'mon mom, tell us about it

Advertiser Staff

Tomorrow is the deadline for moms to write in to The Advertiser about their favorite handmade gifts from their children.

If you are a mother who treasures something your child once created specially for you, won't you write to us about it? The Advertiser will select some letters to feature in an upcoming story for Mother's Day. Tell us in 500 words or less: What is the story of the gift, and why is it special to you? Be sure to describe the gift, how old your child was and when you received it.

You are invited also to submit a photo of the object, yourself and/or your child. Please send hard-copy photos only (no computer disks or e-mailed photos). No materials can be returned.

Send to: Motherhood Mementos, The Honolulu Advertiser, P.O. Box 3110, Honolulu, HI 96802. Letters only may be e-mailed to ohana@honoluluadvertiser.com or faxed to 535-8170. Be sure to include your city and day phone number. Or drop off at the News Building, 605 Kapi'olani Blvd. The deadline is 4 p.m. tomorrow. Letters and photos submitted to The Advertiser may be published or distributed in print, electronic or other forms.
