Hubby's due back home around 5:00 today and has told me to take my mom out tonight while he watches the kids. We're probably going to go on a ghost tour of our city (it's considered to be "the most haunted town in Maryland"), which is something she and I have been wanting to do for awhile. Will probably go out to dinner beforehand. My mom has "ordered" DH and me to go out to dinner on Mother's Day, sans kids.

My DS just called to inform me that he and his GF will be coming here to visit me for Mom's Day tomorrow. Guess who's cooking the "special meal"? LOL. -- Cheers Chatty Cathy |

My MiL died more than 20 years ago. We still miss her, but for the life of me I don't think I could have spent week with her. I will cook a nice meal for my wife for Mother's Day and we will be sure to toast my recently departed mother. |

We don't make a huge fuss about it in our family, but I always acknowledge the day enough to say "Thanks and I love you." Often, it's a card, a bouquet or some other little present. Breakfast in bed is right out, since she live's an hour's drive away from me, anyway. Everything would just get cold on the way over. =o) Melissa |

She did last year. I made sure they sent chocolate truffles with it. She is still in Arizona but they are moving back here next month!!! I'm so exited as they are moving HERE instead of San Antonio. Now I get to spend more time with the boys and watch them grow up. They are 3 and 5. My sister is 10 years younger than I am. Next year, I take her out to lunch at the place of her choice. ;-) -- Peace, Om Remove _ to validate e-mails. "My mother never saw the irony in calling me a Son of a bitch" -- Jack Nicholson |

I happened to have moved back to where she was living for one of her last MD's. I bought her an Impatiens plant, and she called it Impatience. Yes. That was my point. David |
