Majorly sad right now.


I'm right there with you. My H always made a very big deal out of Mother's Day. We were separated on my very first mother's day, but he still came to spend the day with me (and brought me a nice handbag and a bracelet). Once our D was older, they would always make something for me and go shopping to choose a gift. He also always made whatever dinner I wanted. My H is a very good cook, so that's something I've been missing a lot. This year is different. He told me that he took D7 shopping for a mother's day card and that she had it and would give it to me tomorrow. He went out of town with a friend for the night and I have no idea what time he's coming back tomorrow. I will know when he gets back since he left his car at my house (he took his motorcycle for the overnight trip).

It's definitely going to be different this year. I've been reminding myself that I have my D with me and that she and I will make the day awesome together, and that's all that really matters.
