Thankfully not a mum but have spoken to mine and about to go round to cook a meal for MIL. Did shudder at the word "Mommy" on this thread though, always sounds dead whiney (sp) to me a bit like how adults calling their mum's "Mummy" always seems associated with toffs. Not sure why certain things associate so much but they just seem to with me.
Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.
Which one are you and is it how you want to be?Comment

Funny isn't it how so many people have different names for their parents. My daughter calls us "parents" as in, hello parents. I call my parents Mummy and Daddy and I'm 53 and they are 77! KK wouldn't have dreamed of calling his parents mummy and daddy but then, that's just the way he was bought up I guess.

Mommy is the AMERICAN version!
Mothering Sunday is older than the USA (although it has undergone many changes over the centuries). 'Mothering' in this context meant visiting Mother, but originally the Mother Church, the major church of a large district, which had set up local 'daughter churches' in the surrounding area. On Mothering Sunday, the congregations of the local churches walked in procession to the Mother Church for the service. More recently it was when girls 'in service' got the day off to go visit Mum.
Nowadays it's just an occasion to show appreciation of Mum, and like most 'shared occasions' it has got more than a little commercialised.Flowers come in too many colours to see the world in black-and-white.Comment

I know a couple of people who HATE the term 'Mothers' Day' and always say (loudly) "It's MOTHERING SUNDAY!!!!!!!!" LOL
I gave my Mum a Bottle of (quite expensive) Bath Soak stuff for weary Gardeners! Quite apt, as she was complaining about her aches and pains yesterday, after weeding for a few hours (she is 70). Like me, she enjoys a good wallow in the bath with a glass of...
My 'Babies' Chickens/Geese/Horse/Cat/Dog got me chuff-all, as usual!

It's Mothering Sunday because it's on the church calendar, unlike Father's Day which is not!Granny on the Game in SheffieldComment

The only "child" I have is Beau who very kindly sent me a card today. He's also suprisingly good with words as this is what "he" wrote in it. His spelling is a little shakey, but what can you expect from a four year old Golden Retreiver?
"My Mum"
A Powem by Bowmont De Lacy Chumley-Warner - aged 4
You feed me when I'm hungery and giv me chunks in jelly.
You giv me lots of hugs and kisses and often rub my belly.
You take me walkys to the beech and watch me swim and pound,
And marvel at the rocks and shells I've held my breth and found.
You wash me when I'm dirty and use the noo-noo on my belly,
And love me all the time although I'm often very smelly.
You cuddle me and giv me hugs and gently stroke my hed,
Even though I make you mad by stealing all the bed!
So, Mum you know you are the best - the best I've had to date.
The bestest mum in all the world as well as in Margate!When the Devil gives you Cowpats - make Satanic Compost!Comment

Happy Mothers day, every year since I lost my Mum I wish I could buy a card for her. I took flowers over to the cemetry and put them on the grave, sadly the only ones she had. I also put some on my sisters grave again the only ones she had.
To all who have lost a loved one, a very big hug. xxGardening ..... begins with daybreak
and ends with backache
