Mother's Day is almost here. Did you know that Mother's Day was conceived after the Civil War and initially intended as a call to unite women against war? Mother's Day in the US has transformed into a day to give thanks to our mothers.
Which of the following gifts would you want to receive most this Mother's Day?
A day spent with your family/children (41.5%)
A day at the spa (40.5%)
Flowers (4.9%)
Chocolate (2.9%)
Jewelry (10.2%)
Can't I have them all? Please :)
I am always with my children so a day at the spa would be wonderful!
I'd like to spend the day with my family!
I am a realist - my son is now a doctor who, with his wife and two newly-adopted toddlers (they really do love challenges), lives nearly 500 miles away. A day together is not possible right now; so some really good, organic dark chocolate would be nice.
My children and grandchildren all live at least a 3 hr drive away. Mother's Day will be special this year as we are driving 8 hours to be with my daughter, her husband and 2 yr old grandson and nearly 5 year old granddaughter. Nothing could be better unless I could be with all my children and grandchildren!
spa for me. I love my family and kids but I always take care of every one else 24/7 so 1 day for it all to be about me would be nice
Spend time with my kiddies
the spa works for me...all my time is with my daughter and husband...i need a couple of hours to myself...
The best things in life are free.
I am a single parent 5 days per week as my dh works second shift. I have my ds every day before and after school, I drive him to swim and baseball. What I want more than anything for mothers day is just some "me" time. I don't get time away from the family very often alone and it is always a nice time to just relax and not have to be wife and mom for a few hours.
