Today may be Mothers Day, but my true Mothers Day was when my children were born and I held them in my arms.

My Mom was never emotionally invested in me really as a kid, and still really isn't. She was one of those women who had children "for the experience" as she put it when I asked her one time. I think you should be more invested in it emotionally to bring people into the world...Like have a real desire to be a mother. She never did. However, I am still glad to have her in my life - Especially since this is my Dad's first Mother's Day since his Mom passed away last year and I can see how much he misses her. I never want to take my parents for granted! I know my Mom loves me and I her!

I feel so bad and stupid, my MIL and SIL brought me stuff for mothers day and I couldn't even afford to buy them a card. I could just cry.

Things I wish I could say this Mothers Day. Thank you for the cheapest, least personal necklace from Target that you could find, I don't wear necklaces, haven't in 20 years. Thank you four legged mutt for waking me up at 5:30 to go pee, your adopted, I'm not your real mom. To my mother, be happy you got a card and a phone call. You were a horrible mother to me you selfish jerk. You drilled it in my head that I was useless, fat and stupid. That everything had to be your way or else, enjoying mothers day alone? And to my kids and husband, I have enjoyed washing the laundry today, thanks.

MIL thinks the sun shines out of my SILs behind. I am a Mother too, unlike SIL I have had to struggle just to make sure my kids can eat,yet she makes her a Mothers Day dinner, etc. I feel so unimportant.

Even though I got nothing for Mother's Day from anyone else, I got Breakfast in bed from my son and that is all I need to make me happy.

Do moms expect their child's teacher to have the students make or card or craft for Mother's Day? I teach third grade and I never have the kids do these things in class. I assume their father would take care of Mother's Day stuff. I'm sorry to the moms of my students. I never thought to do something for Mother's Day!

My mom disowned me a little over a month ago. I bet she still expects me to take her out for mother's day. She's that self-centred.

I got an underwear full of period for Mother's Day! Thanks Mother Nature! Ya B!tch!!

Happy Mother's Day Truu!
