I bought my mother a spa package and my father bought me one from my son. We are going to have a lovely day at the spa. Later that day we are going to Red Lobster as a family.

My Mother is in Heaven. I usually place a candle and some flowers by a special photo I have of her. I talk to her and remember our happy moments My six children know that I get to take a photo of them all together on Mothers Day. With their eyes rolling, they usually give me their best smiles I am going to take them down to a pretty spot by the river for their photo this year. If you still have your Mom, let her know how much you love her

I lost my mom a long time ago now, but I still have lots of moms to cherish. We have fun on Mother's day. Will make a picnic with some wine, and hike Pinnacle with my wife and have a nice lunch up there, unless it's raining of course. Dinner at Harrison's and front row seats for Midsummer Nights Dream

My Mom is here. Not sure what we are doing as I thought she was going to be at my brother's. But change of plans and she is coming home tonight.

This sounds like a perfect day for your wife. Sorry you lost your mom; never enough time. (Thanks for the nice comment re: mom in the photo thread, btw.)
I sent my mom flowers and will be seeing her shortly after Mother's Day; will do whatever she wants...

Have wonderful day with your children, Barbara. Good luck with the photo. That's a lot of children to synchronize; sounds fun.

I still buy shit for my ex from our boy but I told him he needs to start taking care of it since he's figured out how to buy videogame stuff. She does not return the favor but if she wasn't always a selfcentered b-word I'd still be married.

I usually send my mom flowers and we go out for dinner.
The kids will probally buy me flowers and it would also be nice if my husband would wake up at 6:30 am and make the bottle and change the diaper for once.

Could be your ex's. You always said she was a heartless cunt.

I'm sending flowers to my mom; couldn't think of anything else.
We always invite the MIL and family down for a barbecue so I end up working my ass off on mother's day. Hrumph.

Very pretty. Is that your dad in the picture, LC? You posted a picture of your son once and from what I can remember he looks a lot like him.
05-11-2012, 11:45 AM

05-11-2012, 11:53 AM
Gorgeous parents, LC. Your mom sounds like she was fun, as well as nurturing. Mine too...

lucky kids some of us.
we had to hide the Elvis records from my dad.
she was a Miss North Carolina once. and she flew an airplane when women didn't do that.
i swear i won't get emotional when it's Mothers Day, but i always do.
