UN-mom's day

We don't celebrate Mother's day in our house. I'm not my husband's mom so he doesn't do anything. We homeschool so no teacher is helping the kids make something for mom. My mom is deceased so that is a wash.

Quite frankly, it makes me feel like a failure. Not worth a special day. I try not to let it get to me but sometimes it just sneaks up and catches me unaware. I just get sucked into a vortex of sadness.

I'm not going to let it take me down. I will focus my thoughts elsewhere.

And should I be blessed in the future with grandkids, I will make sure they learn the tradition of making mom's day special for their own moms.
