Does your hubby wish you a Happy Mother's Day?

hmm..kinda weird coz Mother's day is not just for your mother but all the mothers including you and me. My hubby greats me on Mother's day and so does all the people around me. My kid still doesnt know about this occassion so I dont really feel bad if he doesnt greet me on Mother's day. I never forget to greet my family and loved ones on their special day like bday and other occassions/holidays there is. How about opening it up to your husband and let him know what you feel and maybe he will give it a second thought and you might just get the biggest mother's day surprise! have fun.

LOL, it's not just you Caila! My hubby tells me I'm not his mother so why should he? It was different when our daughter was still young, he at least took her shopping back then, but I do understand his reasoning, lol. :) ps. What do you do for hubby at Father's Day? I've already told hubby he's not my dad, so don't expect anything special from me. Of course, he'll still get a good meal on his day, lol. ;)

Well my hubby has said that 'i am not his mother' lol but he does encourage our daughters to do something. What usually happens is that we go shopping and i pick up what i want lol

My husband always try to surprise me on mother day. He and my daughter normally will hidden some presents and they will pretend that there's nothing special on mother's day except morning kisses and cheering happy mother's day. And most of the time we will have breakfast or brunch somewhere else and just enjoy the day...and I did the same to him on father's day too...hehehe....

Aww, I'm so sorry he doesn't make Mother's Day more special for you. If he remembers his own mom, then there's no excuse for not doing something special for you as well. :( I would definitely tell him that it hurts your feelings. I hope this Mother's Day is better for you. My husband is thoughtful about the holiday...he makes sure there are cards from both him and my daughter, he takes over her morning routine, makes breakfast, etc. I know he does it because he loves and appreciates me, but I think he also fears retribution on Father's Day if he doesn't do anything special. ;)

I am so sorry and I understand completely. my husband is the EXACT same way. I held it in and cried to myself last year just upset. I was pregnant and we had a little girl as well. And, no acknowledgment at all but you know he got his mom a card and a gift and called her.. me-nothing not even a mention of it. I was upset.. Now whatever. I did the same to him come fathers day well no wait i did get him a card and gift but gave it to him late and i then said hey see at least i remembered even if it was late. now, i had it beforehand but why give it if he doesnt care enough to do that for me.. I was angry for a while.. We shall see what this year brings.. Honestly, It hink they are all the same. I belong to mommy sites and they all go through it too... Hang in there. I ams rory he is that way.. just know you are not alone.

Well a Happy Early Mothers Day to you from one forgotten mom to another. My hubby tends to forget too so what Ido is I tell him that this mothers day all I want to do is get my nails done for mothers day. It is a bit of pampering for myself. It is also about a half hour to 45min of just ME time and none of the kids are arround me. Why not try to just get a little of you time even if it means just getting a hair cut.

in some way he does, sorry to hear that, he makes sure that our kids wish me happy mothers day and on occations we have gone to dinner or he has brought flowers for me from them. i hope that in time yours becomes all you disurve,,, happy early mothers day my friend

I usually buy my wife some time of annul flower to plant in the yard as she loves flowrs, Granted she isnt MY mother but she is a mother none the less. I even say Happy Mothers Day to women I seee that day with children in tow at stores etc. Its mothers day to celebrate all mothers in the world. So therefore I wish all mothers an early happy Mothers Day.

Oh yes. A special hug and a kiss on Mothering Sunday from all the children and me. Why not show your appreciation on a special day?

Last year was my first Mother's Day. It fell on our first wedding anniversary. He did buy me a card and 2 gifts. I wasn't really all that pleased with the gifts he bought me, but at least he remembered. He got me a shirt that didn't fit right (my son was only 3 months old, and my chest was HUGE from the milk.), and a really pretty necklace. The problem with the necklace was that it was on a really delicate chain, and he got offended when I didn't wear it. I do wear it when we go out, and when I explained to him that the baby would break it fast if he got ahold of it, I think he understood. This year, I'm thinking I will probably get a card, and he will help the baby color me a picture. We're saving money so my son and I can go home for my sister's wedding, so I don't expect any presents this year.

Hahaha! Dont be upset, because i dont get the greetings yet from my husband, either. Still dont know why it became an issue if us, mother's dont get greets from our hubbys. It's true its its a pity, especially for myself, if idont get one from hubby,why care? But why almost everybody does? Anyhow, i think that the reeason for this roar is that....a person seeks acceptance in a society, its like everybody does get a prize while I don't, that makes it different. That simple thing becomes an issue that become a story, that leads to misunderstanding. It usually does. I hope not, at this time around.

I'm sorry that your husband does not acknowledge Mother's Day for you. My husband always does, and he always encourages our son, too, he takes him shopping to find a special gift for me. Then they either take me out to dinner or they prepare the meal themselves at home. I guess I never really thought about it, because my husband has done this since our son was born. I believe that all mother's should be acknowledged on Mother's Day. Do you acknowledge Fathers Day for him? If you do maybe you should stop and see how he feels about it. It might not bother him, though. Good luck, maybe this year will be different.

its my first mother's day this year and i am looking forward to how my husband will wish me a happy mother's day..... it will make me happy if i recieve even one rose from him (he had only given me a rose once during our 3yrs of marriage).... i cant wait until that day comes....

My husband is the exact opposite. He gets himself and the kids all worked up into a frenzy over mother's day. They always have lots of cards for me, both home made and purchased from a store. He has been forbidden (by me) to spend tons of money on flowers because they just die anyway but he always purchases something from himself and something from each one of the children to give to me as a gift. It is usually just a small item like a packet of flower seeds and some gardening gloves. I have to remind him repeatedly to call his own mother and wish her a happy mother's day though. I would not care if I received any presents or cards though. I would be happy with just a "happy Mother's day" and some peace and quiet. That is the one gift I always request and he always grants for me. He will take the children out to do something fun for the day and let me take a bath, go shopping by myself, etc. I love it!

Hi Caila, sorry to hear that the coming of Mother's Day has got you feeling down. This is my first real Mother's Day! Last mother's Day my daughter was still in my belly so I am really excited. Last March my hubby and I got married, Mother's Day was in May (as I said she was still in my belly) but he got me a " To my loving wife on mother's day" card. I was so moved, and not to mention harmonal and emotional from my pregnancy that I bawled. I thought it was so sweet =) Happy early Mother's Day and I hope you get some form of acknowledgement this year!

My hubby always acknowledges me on Mother's Day. He usually takes me out for lunch and and takes my daughter out to get me something.
