Are you counting down until Mother’s day? If not, here’s a heads up: it’s coming up in about three weeks (May 11!).
In honor of this most awesome mothering holiday, I’m planning a series of posts on honoring, appreciating and showing appreciation for motherhood. I would love it if you’d join me in making Mother’s day merry!
Naturally, you can do this by reading and commenting on my posts here. You can also do this by specific suggesting subjects for me to write on. But best of all, you can do this by posting your own post about honoring motherhood. You can call for the world to sit up and notice moms; you can remind your kids and husband of all you do for them.
Won’t you join me in celebrating all that mothers have done for us, and continue to do today?

great idea – I’m still having a tough time with mother’s day because of some history with hub & I – but I’ll try! 🙂
Y’know, I think a lot of people have a tough time with mother’s day, especially when it doesn’t meet their expectations. Do you think that’s something I (or you) should write about?
Since my dh is in the restaurant industry, our holidays are usually celebrated on “off” days, so we’ve learned to make them special.
But nothing will every beat “the first”: dh woke up early, took ds out into the kitchen, then I smelled something burning. After I was assured all was well, I was ushered back to bed then eventually summoned to the living room. There I received a beautiful diamond double heart necklace (one for each of my “boys”) and the best part-my first mother’s day card from my son…with his “signature” hand and foot print in chocolate! Of course, mama’s first instinct? Check his hand and foot to make sure they weren’t burned!
