About the Book

A flock of plastic pink flamingos on the prairie farm embarrassed Dee Dee as a child. Understanding her mother's unique yard decorations led to finding hidden values of humor and hospitality, a journey she shared in her first book, Dear Mom: Remembering, Celebrating, Healing. Now Dee Dee shares a deeper journey of finding the best "gifts" of 16 values of a mother's life, and reveals their hiding places:
​
  • Mom's words: Remember the phrases you heard over and over? "Count your blessings." "There's a silver lining in every cloud." "Close the door! Were you born in a barn?"
  • Mom's actions:  Remember the things your mom did with her hands to make your life wonderful? Cooking, cleaning, and baking brownies late at night because you forgot you needed them for school the next day?
  • Mom's traditions & unique items: Remember favorite holiday traditions, family customs, and of course, embarrassing things that made your mom unique, like plastic pink flamingos?
​
After finding the values of a mom in her words, actions, and traditions, Dee Dee takes readers on the journey of paying them forward by sharing them with children and grandchildren in more heart-warming stories that will encourage you to share your values with those you love.​

Readers will find a collection of reflections that encourage them to:
  • Slow down and look for the good
  • Celebrate everyday joy
  • See beauty in unexpected places
  • Cultivate gratitude and hope
  • Rekindle a sense of delight and wonder

​Each message feels like a gentle reminder that joy doesn’t need to be chased—it only needs to be noticed.​
