[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just think about how you would feel down the road if your kids lived in the area with their families and blew you off. (My MIL is in town as well) Maybe dedicate Saturday as "your" day and visit with your MIL on Sunday.[/quote] This is exactly what we do. Instead of a MIL, though, it's DHs grandmother who loves the royal treatment on mother's day. Extended family overpriced buffet brunch where everyone pays her way, she's showered with gifts, etc. But she just loves it so much, and it is awesome to see her enjoy it. My first mother's day I felt a little slighted and wondered if the other mothers in the family felt the same way. Now we do something low-key for me on Saturday like breakfast, picnic, or alone time and then join the family on Sunday. No biggie.[/quote]
