Kee,

Take the flowers as a gesture that he is grateful for the kids. Nothing else.

I have received Mother's Day "gifts" every year since H left. They are just his way of acknowledging I am his D's mother.

The I will always love you comments you need to take in the spirit in which they are given and that is not romantic in any way.

I'm sorry about the loss of your Mother. It's hard under any circumstances and with this on your plate too, well, my heart goes out to you.

I lost my Mom a few years ago and my brother last year.Sux.

I know how tired you are. What are you doing to take care of you?

HUGS
