Mother’s Day Made Easy!
Thursday, May 10th, 2007
Mother’s Day is obviously about celebrating, and showing your love and appreciation for, your mother. 
And unfailingly, every year I find myself torn between how to divide my time, and Mother’s day, to accomodate my mother, and my husband’s mom. Never mind that I’M a mom and would just love to spend the day with MY family and kids, hanging out, going to my favorite restaurant, or seeing a movie together. It just never happens that way. 
So, instead of feeling stressed about Mother’s Day this year and how I’m going to divide my time between my mother and mother-in-law, I decided to have them come to ME. I’m having a Mother’s Day brunch here at my house and I’m making quiche, wood-smoked bacon, potatoes, pastries, fresh fruit, and Mimosas. Sure, I’ll be doing most of the work (actually, Don’s the better cook, so he’ll be doing most of it!), but the best thing is, I won’t have to go ANYWHERE, because my mom and mother-in-law will be coming to my house. I can stay at home, relax, and enjoy the day at MY leisure! Now that’s my kind of Mother’s Day! 
We all have mothers, or are mothers ourselves. So, how are planning on spending Mother’s Day?
