HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all! I love you mom!

Do anyone here have any plans on Sunday to show appreciation to their mom?

 

I mentioned in my other thread. I have a mother who is emotionally/mentally abusive to mee, and one time physically abusive to me too.

In my whole childhood, all I heard is she belittle me, scold at me, insults me and put me down like a dog. In her eyes, I worth less than a dog on the street. It does take a toll on me.

Despite a messed-up childhood. I have a smooth adulthood, and I'm blessed to have an awesome husband.

 

Mother's Day is coming up this Sunday in USA, I want to say I love all mothers out there. Happy Mother's Day to all the mom and mom-to-be out there!

Whether good or bad mother, I still love you because you bring me to this world. This lifetime I'm unfortunate because I don't have a loving mother. All my life and still is subconsciously, I yearn for a loving mother; a mother that I know I don't have and never had.

 

I know there are good mother out there, there mother who sacrifice their everything for their children. I love you, your chidlren is very lucky to have you. I admire you!

I wish my next life when reincarnation, I will have a loving mother like you.

 

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL!! I love you mom and love all the mother out there!

 

I do not have good relationship with my mom at all, but I do love my dad. I'm going to come back home to visit my father this weekend, to stay and eat a meal with him. While hearing my mom lecture me and insulting me like a dog.

Which is fine, I'm numb to her insulting words. It won't be long stay, as soon I finished eat with my dad, I will leave.

If it weren't for my old father, no way I have the strength to come back home to visit.

 

It sure hard, but I'm thankful for life. There always others out there who have worser life than me.

 

For those who have bad relationship with your mother in your childhood, hope this article make you feel better: A Toast to All the Brave Kids Who Broke Up with Their Toxic Moms

 

 

 

---------------------------------

And since we in the Mother's Day topic.

If you are a mother, what do you like/want from your husband and kids? Like spend a day with the family, take family pictures, have a meal out, etc...

How do you want your children to show their appreciation to you being their mom? How do you want your husband to show you his appreciation to you?

 

 

 

I don't have any kids yet, I just got married 4 months ago. We will TTC in 2016, my husband already have baby fever big time. I want a year time alone with him before we have a baby.

Right now he working so much, having a baby wouldn't be a good idea. Next year when we have enough money for a house down-payment, and he back to work 1 job, it would be the better time to TTC

 

But if I have kids, what do I want for Mothers' Day?

All I want is my kids to be happy and healthy.

I want them to grow up with loving childhood memories. Unlike like me myself-their mommy who is full of emotional scars from my childhood.

I like handmade things, so I would love it if my kids make me a handmade cards and write I love you mommy on it.

 

As for my husband, I don't want anything from him. He already is an awesome awesome husband!

Oh, my favorite flower is jasmine. It would be nice if my husband get me couple more jasmine pots, so I can plant and water. :)

How sweet....your thread.

 

But like I've posted many of times, I'm not a "day" person.

 

I can't stand the emphasis people, society, and the marketplace puts on V-day, M-day, B-day...I show people I care for them throughout the 24/7, 365/a yr etc. I don't need a "day" to prove that I care.

 

But, to just "get along" and keep the peace, I follow the "herd". I mean, one time I pretended to forget my mum's B-day and the look on her face...Geesh

 

IMO, my mum was not the best mum. She was very selfish and exposed us to a lot of neglect and abuse. Now, in her final days I guess she's doing an "unspoken" way to make up for it. She's been there for the grandkids and my brother and I appreciate that.

 

So, I am just trying not to dwell on the past and be compassionate because God is watching you know.

 

I already got her a card and surprise plant, but the plant's been outside for like a week now and I think she already saw it :eek:

 

With our schedules and to beat the weekend herd, I plan to take her out this week...but, will ask her what she wants to do when she wakes up Sunday morning and sees the plant and card on the kitchen dining table :)

 

Oh, for all the other "mums" and "expecting mums" I know of? I'm going on Facebook and sending e-cards.

 

I don't have the budget to send everyone a gift, besides, most people and relatives of mine are overseas and/or far away. If they were closer, I'd probably try to set up a brunch at my home and/or take them all out. Also, e-cards, IMO, are just as good as paper cards.

I am meeting my mom and family for lunch and I have gifts for everyone announcing my pregnancy. :D I will get my mom some flowers as well and a card.

 

Hubby got me an edible arrangement, flowers and a card for my first Mother's day. :love: Since my morning sickness has made eating hit or miss, fruit has been the one constant so that is a BIG win. :laugh:
