I believe Hawaii would be my answer to that. My children, Tim, Tanya and Tera took/sent me to Hawaii for my 75th birthday nine years ago. Tim & Rene’ flew with me and were with me the entire trip, driving us places and enjoying the trip with me. Katie and Mark came later and stayed a few days after we left.
God’s beauty of the island is displayed without measure. The flowers were beautiful. We ate wonderful food and saw sights I never thought to see. The black sand beaches were different. Rene’ and Katie went swimming in the ocean. I sat on the beach. We watched whales play in the distance.
My children did not allow me to spend one cent except for gifts for friends and souvenirs for myself. I bought some jewelry for myself and T-shirts for friends.
Visiting the beautiful island was a special time for me. There was a luau one night and it was beautiful and interesting. Having seen luaus in movies, it was a delight to see one in ‘real life’.
So many wonderful memories of a time my children shared a love for Mama and one a Mama truly appreciated. I have the BEST children and my love for them grows as I grow ‘wiser’ (not older) ha.
