SweetandHappy Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 For those of you that are remarried, what do you do for Father's Day/Mother's Day? My husband and I do not have children of our own, but have 2 each from prior marriages. Last year was our first Father's Day together, and I know that he didn't feel that great about it. The kids were not used to doing anything and sort of forgot. This year I am planning to take his daughter shopping to buy something for him and they are making him cards. I was reading another thread where the OP stated that no one should do anything unless it is your father or the father of your children... made me think. So, I just wanted to get feedback. He bought me flowers for Mother's Day and we all went out to dinner. It was very nice. I think this will work for us. 1
Ursa Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 We have my stepdaughter every Father's day, whether it falls on a day we are normally scheduled to have her or not; her mother has her every Mother's Day. She is a teen now and old enough to come up with her own FD gift ideas, but when she was little I used to help her plan and shop for it, or help her make gifts and cards, and help her make breakfast in bed for my husband. Now she helps her little brother . We also have a Father's Day tradition, a place that we always go. When she was little I also used to help her make cards and shop for her mom for Mother's Day, so she would not be going over there empty-handed. 1
