Mother's Day

Happy mothers day. here in mexico its always may 10th.

Maybe not on Mother's Day, but we had a really special party for Mom on her 80th birthday.

First of all, I hope you will have a great day. It is so nice that your children give you lovely gifts. Actually in my country there is no such a day. However, as time goes by, our society has been affected by the western countries. But we follow the Mother's Day which is in the second/third (I am always confused to it) Sunday in May. This is an American Mother's Day, I guess. So here in May children will try to do something to make mothers happy.

I would like to wish every mother a good day.My kids love to buy me a small gift and a card.I like to see them as well and if there is a present it is a bonus.To have children is a wonderful thing all that love and all you have to do is look after them.My children blow me away with their love and kindness ,giving me wonderful grandchildren and plenty to do.Everyday is special when you have children it is just nice to get a present as well.My kids always say you gave us everything mum and it is our turn to spoil you.little do they know how lucky I am.It does not do the little ones to show their appreciation of what you do for them.Giving appreciation is a lesson that should be learn't in life.It teaches them not to take kindness and love for granted.Who else in life would give your everything and not expect anything back,Only your Mum ,love your mum and never take her for granted as their are plenty of us who have never known their mum,or lost them along the way.

Hello, Nice to hear that you have so nice kids which give you so sweet presents. I get a bit confused, because I thought that we have mother day in one day in all over world. But, then I make a little search on Wikipedia and saw that this day is in different dates in all countries. So we celebrate it on my 2nd week Sunday. I usually buy flowers, but when I was a kid i too make a little cards for my mother. And my favorite flowers is pink roses.

HI maximax, I'm currently on a study abroad program in London and 10 March (Today) is Mother's day too. I'm from singapore and before arriving in London, i thought that Monther's day is an internationally agreed upon day and i did not know that different country have different mother's day!

Mothers Day here in the US is in May. I was never able to have kids so I could never appreciate this day. I do have god children who sometimes will say something to me. But back when my Mom was alive and we were growing up we did usually take time to do something special, and would give her a Card and even fix breakfast for her. People need to realize and respect and appreciate their mothers, and they could not be here without them.

Mum seems to have everything at once, her 70th is on Monday, and Mother's Day the day before, so I went out to get two cards for her, to take away with her as she goes to stay with her sister for a long weekend. I got her some Marks and Spencers Vouchers so at least she can buy what she wants when she wants. I do notice some shops take advantage of the fact that it's Mother's Day by upping the price of flowers! Commercialism always seems to take over any special event.

My kids haven't remembered and neither did my bloke before he went out. I'll poke the kids a bit later and demand a sit down with a cup of tea. I haven't sent anything to my Mum, but I'll phone later on and my Grandma too. Congratulations to your Mum for her forthcoming birthday, and I hope the weather improves so that you can both enjoy an afternoon out.

Happy Mother's Day to you! I hope you are enjoying your day. Yes, we have Mother's day the second Sunday of May and this year its on the 12th. My favorite flower for me would be pink roses. I think they are the most beautiful flowers that God created. We have given our mom a special day many a times in the past but now that we live so far away not so much lately. I would love to one Mother's day surprise her and stay with her and my dad till after Father's day. Maybe next year I can do that. This year I will be in New Mexico with my daughers and their families for mother's day. Take care and enjoy!

Mother's Day is usually celebrated every second Sunday of May. I usually give her other gifts like things that she can actually use or add pictures of my kids in picture frames to add to her collection. I seldom give her flowers.

In the US it's not Mother's Day just yet but it is coming up soon. Normally mom will get all kind of things, my husband normally buys me flowers and puts our kids name on it since they can't so anything yet. I love getting carnations because I hate roses. As long as it get a hug and kiss that day I'm a happy mama.

We have mothers' day in my country, but at our place, it is the first Sunday of May. I'm not a mother yet, so I'm just celebrating my mom, I'm not celebrated :). She isn't huge fan of flowers, so I don't get her flowers, but chocolates or books or something else. I personally love flowers. I like roses, pansies and tulips a lot!

Yes, we also have Mother's Day here on May. I am glad to hear that your kids really went through all that effort to make you feel special. As their mom, you deserve all that and more.

When my mother was alive and aging , she was a constant source of annoyance and often raise my blood to boiling temperature by the statements she makes or the behaviour that can be so very annoying, My mom passed away when she was approaching 80..and had the symptoms of senility. But come mother' s day, i will reminisce on my early childhood when my mom was still a mature strong woman in her 40s, and i remember ever so fondly the times we had spent together as a family with all the siblings coming together as a unit to celebrate her BD, the joy in her face that was contagious to us all. it usually gives my heart a yearning or longing to see my mothers face and to tell her how dearly i loved her, so that it can make her happy.Because looking back to the time when she was with me, very seldom did i express that sentiment for i was too young to consider it and was just taking my mom for granted. Regretted the many times i shouted at her in impatience and then remembering the hurt look in her face which didn't bother me back then but haunts me right now, my heart aches in a wrenching way just thinking about it and so much yearn to undo this regret. We all love our moms, no doubt about that, but at the same time, many of us take her for granted and even lose patience with her, yet how often do we tell our mothers or remind them just how dear they are to us and how much we love them and appreciate their sacrifices or hardship they may have endured for us. For those fortunate enough to have their moms still with them,by all means , wish them Happy Mother's day BUT at the same time , it will make many a precious lady immensely joyful just by virtue of them being told by their children that " Mom we love you". Trust me , it will mean a lot to them, more precious than gold or jewels when moms are told by their children how much they are loved and appreciated. Make their day, give your mother a kiss and say" Mom ,i love you, happy mother's day".

Yes we have it's on May 10th, father's day is in June. It's Always on the same "sunday" of the month in May or June. I don't feel the need really to celebrate it. If my children are not showing they love me daily why on this day? I also don't see the need of celebrating it, seems as if nearly everything needs a special day. perhaps I am Lucky since my children are so close with me and I get many hugs a day?
