Mother's Day

What do you normally do on Mother’s Day? Do you stay home and relax? Go out to eat?

This will be my 5th year celebrating Mother’s Day for myself; before that it was all about my mami. Of course, that means that I share the celebrations with my mom now. Usually, this means I do a little relaxing at home with my family and then visit my mother for the other half of the day. I think once we all went out to eat together. But, we’ve never really done a family day out for Mother’s Day. I think maybe next year I will plan a beach trip so we can all enjoy the wonderful May weather and both my mom and I can relax by the ocean.

To celebrate Mother’s Day, Nestle Family is currently holding a national giveaway on their site and also offering a giveaway for ModernMami.com readers.

    Mother's Day sometimes I'll visit my Mom, but usually she just wants to relax that day.

    Sometimes my husband will buy me a small bottle of my favorite perfume, but usually it's just the kids making me a really crappy breakfast (with love though! LOL), and some homemade cards :)

    My kids wake me up with breakfast in bed (usually made with the help of either Dad or McD's), then they give me presents and cards and tell me how much they love me. After that they all disperse and I spend the rest of the day doing anything I want. My hubby takes care of everything and I have to do nothing. It's fantastic!!! We usually go out for dinner since I don't cook on Mom's Day!!

    For mothers day, I always prefer to go out and spend a day together doing something fun. We have gone to the zoo, various museums, theme parks, and just shopping before. I would rather have that time together than a physical gift. Thanks!

  • Carol G

    Mother's Day is usually pretty low key in this family. With so many mothers involved, it usually consists of cards, flowers and maybe a family meal.

    Thank you for the giveaway. We normally start by my waking up to handmade cards and then have dinner at my favorite place in town. This year was different…I was out of state during mother's day and spent it with my family in California as well as calls from my kids. When I got off the plane last night, my husband and kids took me to dinner! I also came home to a oversized mother's day card and a handmade picture.

    a quiet day at home

  • Christy

    I usually spend Mother's Day planting flowers. Not this year with the weird weather. Think I'll wait until Memorial Day weekend.

    We really do not have the money to celebrate mothers day. Waking up everyday knowing I am a mom and I have a wonderful gamily is good enough for me. My dear daughter who is 8 pampers me with back rubs and make overs.

    I like to spend Mother's Day with my kids, just a laid-back, quiet day at home…maybe ordering in for dinner, so I don't have to cook. Nothing special, but nothing ordinary like doing laundry and dishes and cooking, either!

    Mother's Day is new for me, but my husband has been making me breakfast in bed and we spend the day together as a family.

  • darcyb

    Breakfast in bed, presents and then later shopping with my girls, a movie and dinner out.

    Well My son and family lives out of town and my daughter is always working and taken care of her daughter ( She is a single mom) So I spend time a lot by myself due to husband works different shifts. So my house is quiet and relaxing.

  • js2222

    My family moved away, so we send a card, and usually send flowers, and then we call on Mother's day.

    My mother doesn't like Mother's day; she's think it is too commercialized. So we don't celebrate it.

  • Sarah D.

    My mother likes to be left alone on Mother's Day! :) I give her the day to herself and then go bug her about 7:00 p.m. on Mother's Day. We usually just hang out and gab.

    Our family celebrates Mother's Day by going to church and then going to Grandma's house for lunch. We sit around, talk and play games. Dinner is easy also because we make plenty of food for lunch to last thru dinner :)

    I’ve only had two Mother’s Days so far, so no specific traditions. This year, my daughter went to her dad’s house so I could sleep in and have a relaxing day! Next year, she’ll be a little older and it will be more fun to celebrate together!
