Happy Mother's Day ...but feeling a little bummed

Hi, all. Yes, Lisaloo, i think I'm there, too, but older. Mine are grown but none is
with me at this hospital. My husband and both sons were obviously (to me) choaked up
when they were talking to me yesterday, but no one voiced the thought so I didn't
either. I have a grandbaby due in Aug. I'm hoping to meet on earth, in August, too.

Hi
How you feel is right I am on the otherside but I am petrified it might be my last year with my children.It helped hugely when my husband voiced his fears that he felt the same.Its hard when you feel you are the only one being realistic
Take care Lisa x

Thanks all. We went to church with Mama this morning and I spent most of the service in tears. A lot of others did to because they sang some very touching songs etc. Otherwise, our day was good. I am currently enjoying my day while my family cooks me dinner and some other chores for me. That is the best gift sometimes. I am thankful that Mama is doing well for now. I hope it will continue. Hope everyone had a wonderful day!

Julieann, I think your feelings are appropriate for today. When we let ourselves think about our situations we are happy for now but realize it won't last. Take what pleasure you can from today.

Julianne,
Of course this day will be close to your heart, my mom is gone and I miss having her to buy something for, I use to do her hair , or her nails, so live alot with your mom, she is very alive, celebrate mothers day everyday, not just today!!!!

Julieann, I think your feelings are normal and there is nothing wrong with that... as always Karen gave great advice. She is a wise lady!. Just be honest with Mom and try to make some happy memories today...try to laugh and talk about silly things that happened in your childhood. My thoughts are with you on this mothers day.
