happy mother's day...

posted by [personal profile] imaginarycircus at 12:57am on 10/05/2009
Post Secret's mother's day cards made me choke up. David went to North Carolina to visit his mom. I went out with friends this evening so I wouldn't get completely depressed. But I envy people who have parents. I envy David. He has his parents and his step parents. They came to our wedding and all his graduations and his dad and step mom even came to my grad school graduation. And I love having them in my life. I love them dearly.

But no one replaces my extremely crazy, extremely wonderful mother. She could upset me more than any other person on the planet. I pointed that out to her once and she laughed and said, "Of course. I installed your buttons. Don't you think I know how to push them better than anyone else?" I was furious at the time. And she could be a serious pain in the ass. But no one will ever love me like she did.
Mood:: weepy

Mothers Day is... weird... when you don't have a mom. Everywhere you look, the world is rubbing it in your face that you're different.

I'm avoiding calling my stepmom to wish her a happy Mothers Day. Somehow it seems harder to do this year. I dunno.

Soooo... No words of wisdom here. *more hugs*

Can you send her an e-card? If calling is too hard? I know my stepmom gets very hurt feelings if I don't at least send an e-card.

Good idea! I made myself call, though, and it wasn't bad at all.

I'm glad. I just had a gorgeous dinner with my in-laws and all three of us are motherless. It was actually quite comforting.

As a mom, I feel qualified to comment: you're right!

I try really hard not to push my kid's buttons, but I do that with everybody. I hope we never get to the point of nagging and him avoiding the phone when I call.

I can't see him every doing that! He'll probably call or text or email you frequently because you are an awesome mom and he is such a sweetie pie. Of course there may be some cranky adolescence in there...

My mother showed no compunction about pushing buttons. She just wanted me to do whatever it was she wanted me to and didn't always care how it was effected. Bipolar and anxiety... yeah.
