My mother and I were in the store, and I said, "What day is Mother's Day, Ma?" and she replied, "I dunno." and I said, "Well you should, you're a Mother." And she smiled really big, and said, "No, you should know, you're also going to be a Mother."
I obviously know I am going to be a Mother, but for some reason hearing it made me pause right there and I went, "OMG, I am going to be a MOTHER!" Which my mom replied, "No sh!t." lol..
Re: Caught me off guard...
HA! Nice! I think it's usually the 2nd Sunday in May.
So May 9th this year (but you probably already know that by now.)
Are you going to celebrate this year, by chance? Mother's Day, that is?
My mom said she bought me Mother's Day gifts. (This is my first pregnancy.) I am flattered but in a way, feel slightly nervous about it, bc the baby is obviously NOT here yet...I am also thinking, "Hey maybe she's hinting that I'd better get my a** to the store and buy her something!" haha! Kidding of course...I always do!
I will give my momma something and probably take her to dinner or something, but for me? I don't think so. I didn't even think about it for me, lol. My Mom did buy me a "family tree" necklace when she found out I was pregnant and I have worn it everyday since, I don't know if anything could beat that for me lol.
Aww! That's such a nice gift from your mom! Very thoughtful!
I feel a little weirded out celebrating...not something I had thought of or planned on, but if it makes her happy, why not?
That's cute she wanted to do stuff for you. I would have never thought of it either, but we are mother's even if our baby isn't here yet, I think. There is love there, and we obviously care about the little life inside us, so why not?
