[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once my mom died I just didn't like it any longer. I can't stand going out and seeing women my age with their moms. It is like a stab in the heart. [/quote] My mom is dead, too, and I feel the same way. Even though my in-laws are lovely people, I hate going out with them on Mother's Day because it just highlights what I'm missing and makes me want to cry. And then I feel guilty about not wanting to go. My children are too young to celebrate yet, so we'll see how I feel in a few years. [b]I wish I could just ignore the day or hjust do something low-key and fun with my husband and children. [/b] [/quote] You CAN. Explain how you feel to DH. Send a card and flowers to MIL, and FaceTime or call the day of. If DH and his family are remotely nice and caring people, they will not have a problem with this.[/quote]
