My DH doesn't do mothers day at all. I was gutted last year as it was my first one and I'm used to baking and making things for my Mum.

But I still get ya...i.e. the 1980 frugal chef book instead of the destitute gourmet!!!

At least their hearts are in the right place I guess.

When I was at the supermarket I was going to buy some chocolate that I liked to give to DH to then give to me on Mothers Day.....but changed my mind at the check out counter. Am getting a sleep in and a cooked breakfast which is fine by me!

I'm not getting anything for Mothers Day this year. I could hope for a certain 4 year old to behave but that would be a miricle. My MIL is cooking us dinner thou - so that is a bonus I don't have to cook!!!!

Me and my little sister will ring our mum tomorrow morning when my sister staggers back to my place from her friends.
I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!

Aww

My mum actually bought me a present from the kids and then my dad helped Jack make me a card. Ben probably won't even remember its mothers day tomorrow.
