Those of you who would like your DH to get you a card or gift from your DC, is this because you want your DH to thank you for being a good mother to their child, because you want to pretend it's from your DC, because you just want to join in Mother's day or something else?

Also do you expect the whole day to be special or just to get a card and a pressie in the morning and then get on as normal?

This isn't a criticism but a genuine desire to understand because it doesn't feel like that's what the day is about for me.

Yes but goldmanda, dcs can only do that he they are old enough. If you have little kids they don't have the calendar awareness to know without help from school/dp etc that it is mothers day, make or buy something by themselves ornnot wake up mum so she can have a kid in etc.

Perhaps your dcs are older so can do this themselves, for young ones its nice that the other parent helps them

Of course it is if they are old enough to be aware of what the day is about and DH is helping them, not doing it for them smile
