Lost my mother in 2002, and my husband his some years later, so I do get pangs when you get all this advertising about Mothering Sunday or "Mothers' Day". But I did get very nicely treated by my 2 offspring, and as my daughter is a very good mother, I gave HER flowers and a card.
It's potentially an expensive month for the family, when in some years, my birthday, Mothers' day and Easter all fall within days of each other!
