[QUOTE="C.J., post: 270983, member: 1987"] I took matters into my own hands this year. Instead of dreading the upcoming day, over the last month, I've made about 25 handmade Mother's Day cards. I am mailing them today and tomorrow tothe women in my life who I don't usually include in my "happy mother's day" wishes - my aunts, cousins, neighbors, friends, and co-workers. Each one has a handwritten note telling them how much I admire them and appreciate their efforts as moms, teachers, coaches, and mentors. I've been just giddy picturing them opening the snail mail, and seeing the beautiful card, reading the note inside, and smiling from ear to ear. It's been my gift to myself - bringing joy to others. Since N* is pregnant, and due later this month, I am going to give her a card, too - along with a small bouquet of flowers. Oh! and I sent a card to the adoptive mom! Baby isn't officially here yet, but she and her husband have been wonderful. To all the moms, grandmothers, aunts, sisters, cousins, friends and neighbors: I hope you spend Mother's Day in a way you desire, knowing there are others who share in your joys and sorrows...
