My Mom just started too and my kids are school aged? I always do for her. I don't expect card but sweet

I agree with a PP that it's a day to celebrate your mom, and for your kid(s) to celebrate you.

My MIL gives me a card and it drives me nuts. She writes in it as if it's from DD. She has boundary issues.

My mom gives me a card. I think it's really sweet.

+1. I would have felt extremely awkward if my mother had started giving me cards on Mother's Day.

No, my mom doesn't send me anything. I do send her a card (that's all she wants). My MIL sends me a card and a small gift. This year it was a $25.00 gift card to Starbucks, which was perfect.

Yes, never from MIL though.

It's a day for you to honor your mom, and your kids to honor you.
Some people acknowledge other mothers in their life, and that's fine, but that's not how everyone does it. Most people acknowledge their own mothers, and that's it.
OP, you kind of are the tween who asked, "But why don't we have a KIDS Day?!"

Yes, it is petty. You are not your mom's mom.

Just curious. My mom makes a big deal out of Mother's Day and I've always gotten her a gift and card. I am a mom now with little kids. My sisters in law send me Mother's Day cards. I still get my mom a gift and card. She doesn't give me anything, not even a card. I know this may sound petty but it kind of hurts my feelings. Just a little. I'd never tell her that.
Moms who have living moms- do you exchange cards on Mother's Day or is it only you giving her a card because she's your mom?
