[QUOTE="jbrain, post: 270574, member: 3450"] Hi Crazy, I remember a few years ago when difficult child 1 was still living in our house and she did not acknowledge the day at all though she was well aware of it. When she was younger she'd always make a big deal of it. I felt really hurt. On the other hand, my son, who never remembers any special days, bought me a couple of rose bushes a few years ago for Mother's Day. I was so shocked! difficult child 2/easy child means well but she never gets anyone anything on time so I don't take that personally. Like you, I have made this day into my own. I like to go with husband and pick out flowers to plant in planters for our porch and have him cook dinner or I will barbecue if the weather is nice. I just do whatever I feel like doing and husband is always there to help out and keep me company. Sometimes I have ended up having to work on Mother's Day and that is okay too. I think we mothers of difficult children have to take the initiative to make it a nice day since we can't count on our kids to do it! Jane [/QUOTE]
