Mothers day

There is a thread all about Mother's Day. Lots of comments on there.

A son is a son till he takes a wife ☺️ unfortunately for you, you are not the priority anymore, it is their wives and you are now extended family.

Sad, but true 💐

My son will be visiting me tomorrow. Sometimes I'm invited to his home for lunch for mother's day but as I have my daughter and her family visiting, that won't happen this year.
I'm lucky in that he lives quite close by. For over 20 years he lived a 3 hour drive away.
I'm happy when I see my children but don't have a problem if I don't see them on mother's day, just so long as I get some form of contact, card, text, call. That sort of thing.
I can understand the OP feelings though.

Family relationships all differ. I’d say be thankful to hear from them. Could you suggest a family lunch ?

I’d assume they are helping their children celebrate their mothers?
Do you ask them over for Easter or Christmas?

I know this will sound sexist and I know it doesn't apply to everyone but your husband is right about boys. I think daughters are usually much more on the ball about family occasions and sons tend to get more involved with their wife's family. That's been my honest observation anyway.
