[QUOTE="Mom2oddson, post: 356981, member: 65"] I'm glad you started this thread. I haven't had a good Mother's day in years. We ALWAYS have to go do a Big family thing at mother in law's house every year. It takes all day so I only get to give my Mom the left-over scraps of time. I get to deal with difficult child's acting there worst because mother in law won't allow any correcting of her precious grandchildren at her house. I get to watch husband kiss-up to a woman who is NEVER happy unless everyone else is miserable, but plays the loving, caring Mommy role in academy award winning style. I always end up with a headache, attitude and hating the day. But, this year I'm actually hoping that this Mother's Day might not be too bad. 1) husband is back in New York so I won't know if he calls or doesn't call that thing he calls a mother. And there will be no going to the annual family get-together, nor will I have to miss out on seeing my mom. 2) Since husband is gone, I feel no obligation to do anything for his mother... unless I can find a card that says "Happy Mother's Day you ....blank, blank.... hope you rot in heck!" yeah... I have no bad feeling towards her :raspberry-tounge: 3) Since husband isn't here, maybe he won't be able to force difficult child-S to wish me a happy mothers day.... but if he is able to get her to sent me a text... I have my answer ready.... "You've made it quite clear that I'm the evil-troll step-mom from heck....why are you wasting your time and mine texting me when we both know it's BS?" 4) difficult child-A is around.... will he or won't he remember to wish me a happy mothers day?? Your guess is as good as mine. whatever.... 5) easy child may or may not remember, but it doesn't bother me. He calls me at least 3 times a week. He calls if he's bored, lonely, has good news, bad news, funny news. He sends me a text message every once in a while that says "Hi Mommy"... because he remembers the story I tell of when he was little that I LOVED how he'd say "Hi Mommy" whenever I got home from work. He goes out of his way, all the time, to let me know that I'm important to him. So, from him, I don't need a "special day" because everyday is special. 6) My Dad will take my Mom and me out for a special dinner celebrating his two favorite Mothers. So I'll have good company. I think this may be the best Mom's day yet! Guess I'm going to have to figure out a way to make sure husband is out of town every Mothers day. [/QUOTE]
