Mother's Day....(for the US TPFers)

Aoide · May 8, 2005

I usually order flowers or something from Harry and David's at the last minute, but this year I actually sent her a framed picture. Photography is a new thing for me and she has been very supportive, so it was perfect for this year. I wanted to get it matted and framed, but I just didn't have the money this time. I even sent it early which is a miracle for me.

Seeing as though this thread is still active, just thought I'd let you know I got mixed up in my last post.
Mother's day is/wasn't on Sunday like in the US, but it'll be on the same day as in Poland with Mentos... the 26th.

I was also learning about the different flowers you give on Mother's Day. In Australia I think we give Chrysanthemums (sp?!) to our mums but that is actually the funeral flower in france.! I definately got some strange looks when I said my b'friend sent some Chrysanthemums to his mum today. hehehe.

:heart: I got to see my bonus (step) kids for about an hour today despite their father, my soon to be ex's, best attempts to keep them away from me. :heart:

You just can't mess with Mom on Mother's day!

It was Mother's Day in Malta too on Sunday which is a shame because I left there last Wednesday. Took my Mum out for dinner during the week though before I left and bought her a fob watch which she wanted - now I just have to think about her birthday in 10 days time...
