Does your son ever do anything special for you on Mother's Day? If yes, is this because he wants to or you SO/DH helps him?
I think he wants to, and my DH does help. He is a total mommas boy :)
How old is your son?
I noticed my newly teenage son seems to have an attitude towards Mother's Day. He says things like, "I'm not getting your anything."
I swear the whole teenage attitude sucks. When do those annoying hormones regulate?
As a single mother of a fabulous 7 year old, I must say no, unfortunately I will not be reaping Mother's Day benefits until he is a bit older since his Father does not assist him in making sure I receive a gift - however, I must say that, in the past, he has picked a flower for me and tells me he loves me everyday - so, I need not complain... ![]()
Oh bummer on the teenager nastiness. I have been lucky. Jonathan has always been about me getting/doing, etc. He will make me things, or make sure I go out to eat, or something. If he has to pay or whatnot, LOL.
This year, he turns 16 & next day is MOther's Day. We will do a combined dinner as we both LOVE the same place. We don't get to go often because it is pricy :)

I think that's really sweet that he picks your flowers.

Do you feel like you're always saying "No" to your kids? Maybe it's time to have a "Yes" day instead.
