I hope everyone that is a mother in some way has enjoyed their day and will continue to enjoy their day. Did you get anything special? Do your children make you gifts or are they store bought? What did you get your mother?

My oldest child made a class project this year for Mother's Day. They all had to find a recipe (or many) of their favorite food or their Mother's favorite food and then the teacher put them all together and bound them all together and each child had an essay about their mother as the "introduction" page. It was really cool. My other school aged child didn't bring his home he "forgot" lol and the youngest usually makes something with dad and I don't know what it is since they are all still sleeping. My husband gave me a new wedding set, it's very pretty.

I gave my mother a new outfit. She never buys things like that unless she needs them. I don't really do cards often because they have gotten so expensive and it's just more clutter so when I go today to see her I will stop and buy some flowers for her.

I get to watch my 2 year old try and say "happy momma day" luckily he can say each of those words but I not sure how it will go trying to put them together. Other then that most other mothers are lucky today, because I also get to hear my step sons say that I'm not their mother and that their mom is dead. I am glad it is something I hear everyday or it would make it unbearable. But my youngest is all for a day with his mommy, my present is taking him to the park with a picnic and toys, just me and him. Other then that I haven't gotten anything, but it is only 4:15 in the morning here and I'm the only one awake.

Happy Mother's Day to anyone who gets to raise a child!

I love when children are young and learning how to form sentences, they are always so cute and funny and it makes a great memory for the day. I hope you are able to enjoy every second with your child and step children.

I am not a step parent but, I have seen how hard it is on my husband to have step children. My boys do not like their father and they hate his wife (long story) and so they cling to my husband all the time because they want that "man" time LOL I hope some day your step children will be able to move forward with their mother's passing and you and them are able to make a great relationship bond. Good luck and I'm so sorry that it is the way that it is.

I spent Mother's Day in Canada visiting a friend of ours. My twins did make me gifts in school, which was nice. My oldest is in middle school and they don't do the whole arts and crafts gift thing anymore, so he didn't get me anything. Hubby was broke so also didn't get me anything, and actually, once I opened the gifts from the twins, we all pretty much forgot it was Mother's Day. But that's how it goes for me. My wedding anniversary is just a few days before Mother's Day, and my birthday is just a few days after, and my oldest son's birthday is the day after mine. Usually we spend all our money on my son and I might get 1 gift that will count for all 3 of my holidays. I did get a special dinner yesterday for my birthday, and we went to a movie just the 2 of us on Monday.

I think I would have loved to go to Canada for Mother's Day but with the kids in public school we could never do it and actually stay over night (Canada is like 45 minutes away). I love homemade gifts much better than store bought it takes much more effort than picking up a coffee mug at the store LOL I think you and I would get along great, I would spend my money on my children before me or my spouse as well! I hope you enjoyed each one of your special days happy

My kids are in public school and they missed Monday and Tuesday. We got back home yesterday, and the kids are back to school today. I don't think it's a big deal to miss a day or two of school, especially not for a family trip like that. They got a lot of culture and got to learn about another country, something they won't learn as well in school.
