It’s my first mother’s Day as a mum ( my mum passed away 7 years ago now) and I know this sounds silly but would u be annoyed if your husband bought u card from ur son but then also got a card from my son to his grandma saying happy mother’s day grandma on it? I don’t know why but I feel annoyed about it as it’s my first Mother’s Day and already I feel like I’m sharing it, I find it hard anyway without my mum and I don’t want to get into a thing where every mother’s day she is expecting something not only from her son but also her grandson. Or am I being silly and is it cute? I can tell hubby got the card cos he thought was cute even tho it’s annoyed me. I’m not sure what to do, do I be honest with hubby and say I don’t want to give her a card from my son or do I just let it go and let him give her this card?

I wouid expect grandmothers to be included. They haven't stopped being mothers just because their baby has had a baby, and I am more than happy to celebrate ok the mothers in the family.

Though inwouid expect the celebration to be done by the descendants of that person. So it's entirely right, to me, that your DH arranges stuff for his DMum in the way that that side of the family likes.

Have some virtual Flowers from me, as I guess you may be feeling the absence of your own DMum rather more thus Year.
