i want my mom.
I don't want anything fancy, just a day where I don't have to do anything. A cookout or takeout and maybe some flowers. Nothing fancy or expensive just a nice bouquet from the supermarket.

Oh Oh. This sounds so familiar to me. My birthday is next week and I have to admit that I did the same thing and heard the same exact things from my mom!Originally Posted by GingersMom
All I want is to be ACKNOWLEDGED.
My daughter was born on May 12th, the day before Mother's Day. All her life, she has IGNORED Mother's Day, because it's all about HER, and many times her birthday has fallen on Mother's Day.
I just get depressed, usually, because I am a single parent, and to have almost never gotten a card or anything...well...it gets pretty sad after more than 20 years of getting nothing.
After all, if it weren't for me being her MOTHER, she wouldn't even have a birthday. Right?

I think this is what I am going with. Thank you for your input!
I want the whole day to spend with my daughter going to the park and having a picnic, doing whatever she wants to do. We need a good "mommy-daughter" day.

I really don't care if I get anything. But if I do get something I hope it's something I can use around the house or something for my cats. I love to spoil my cats so a gift for them would be a gift for me.

Our Mum refuses to celebrate Mother's Day. She thinks it is nothing but a marketing ploy and she's right!
So we don't go and spend money on her because that just makes her mad. Instead, we make one day every month Mother's Day. That means we're not being dictated to by people who couldn't care less about Mothers and just want you to spend your money to line their pockets, and we are also making Mum feel special by giving her lots of surprises all year around.
We don't tell her when the day is going to be, we just surprise her with some special gesture. She loves it! We do the same for Dad, too.

My mom is selfless and wants nothing. She wants us to spend the day with DH's mom. She isn't taking the move with my mom too well. Then again my mom might want to spend the day alone since her Mom is gone.
