I HATE MOTHERS DAY! Every year it is nothing much more than an extreme heartache and hassle. A reminder that I will never be anything more than a pain for my stepchildren and a mother of convinience to my biological kids. I hate being a mom on this day that should make us feel good about being a mom. Now this freakin' holiday that makes this mom feel like a puke for not being a "better" mom.

Thank you for being concise in saying exactly how I feel!

I hope you take some time out to do something for yourself. I'm still trying to decide what I am going to do to honor myself for Mother's day, but I'm damn well going to do something. Even if I make some brownies, or bring home a cheesecake. If someone asks what the special occasion is, I'll just smile and say nothing, all the while patting myself on the back and telling me that SOMEDAY SOON quasi-SS17 will be in the real world, and just might realize how much I did for him. And if he doesn't? I believe that karma will bite him in the A$$. Smile
