Do you get Mother's Day cards from your mom or MIL?

Anonymous
I'm just curious what the norm is. My mom sends me cards, but my MIL doesn't.

Mil sends cards sometimes, my mom doesn't. I think it's nice but kind of silly and wouldn't care if she stopped.

My Mil does my mom doesn't. I don't care either way. MIL sends mushy cards (not my personality at all), seriously gag worthy, but she means well.

Mom does.

MIL does not.

My in-laws live in town so they stopped by yesterday and gave me a card and a bottle of wine. My parents are out of town, so my mom will call me. My family has never done much for gifts, so I don't mind at all.

My mil always did before the dementia. She also remembered my birthday. My mom....never.

I have no relationship with my mother, and haven't for over ten years, so none from her.

I get flowers and a card and usually something else from my in-laws. Gift card to a spa or for a pedicure or fancy candies or something.

My mom sends a gift (small) and my MIL sends a card.

No. None of mine have. They have seniority!

Neither. And I'm fine with that. It's not that big of deal. I just like that Mother's Day is usually on a nice Sunday that I can enjoy.

Mom does. MIL doesn't but then she never sends cards for anything, not even DH or grandkids birthdays.

Mom sent me a card from her, a card from my DS (also got one from DH) and a card from my dog. She loves cards! Probably won't get one from mil.
