    My ex-husband moved to Australia with his Australian citizen wife and our, now 13 year old daughter. The other daughter is 19 and could decide to stay. The judge let him move and gave me visitations that can't be enforced in Australia. I would love nothing more than to see my Heather again. He moved them and I found out on Mother's Day 2006, my day for visitation. I yearn to hear her voice.

    I became a mother @ a very young age , and now I'm a grandma. Everyday is like Mothers Day to me because when my oldest daughter and my first grand-daughter comes to visit , I feels ful again and I don't want them to leave. I have 3 daughters and 2 1/2grandkids. It's always loud and fun in oru home. And my mother just moved in with us.

    Mother's Day is MY "holiday". We each "share" holidays to entertain and I am "in charge of Mother's Day". I do not consider myself the best cook so... I make it a brunch. I can "do" bagels and quiche! Hopefully everyone feels the way I do - that its not about the food but... spending time with family.

    I don't need Mother's day to spend that with my child. Everyday is Mother's day to me. She is the best thing ever. I would enjoy the Day spa because that is something I never make time for. I always make time for my daughter.

    I am married to my soul mate. We are blessed to have three wonderful sons. As well as, a grandaughter and a grandson. There is nothing more pleasureable than spending the day with my family, eating a good meal, topping that off with a good dessert and then fighting for a good spot to sit or lie down to watch the movie we've rented!! Nothing in this world compares to being with your family.

    I love my children, but I am with them all the time. I need a day for me to rest so that I may keep enjoying them.

    I would love to just spend so relaxing time with the kids and grandchildren. I hate it when anyone spends money on me for any reason!! Nothing would make me happier than to spend time together with them; not argueing amoungest themselves if possible!!......lol

    Family time is all I ever want for every holiday! Nothing else can compare!

    I am home everyday with my son and husband. I would like to have a day of relaxation but it probably won't happen.

    We are a close family and spend many, many, many family days together. So a spa day (which I would normally consider a financial extravagance) would be delightful!
