I had a wonderful mothers day this year! It was just awesomely awesome!Except the fact that Alix didn't bother ringing me for mothers day. I know that it's something really simple. But coming from Alix, it's a multiplied hurt. Alix didn't want to say happy birthday to me last year either [gee here's another"poor me"!], and she was living with us then!
I waited all day for her call. And even when i went out, the first thing i did when i came home, was check the phone for messages.
I sent her an e-mail telling her that i felt hurt that she'd forgotten me. But she didn't reply.
Pathetic i know, to harbour such a thing. But it's REALLY cut me! And for some sad reason, i don't want to pray about it yet. Instead, i want to nurse the hurt :o(

I blacked out Alix's eyes because i didn't want her looking at me while i posted.

Get over it. I asked my daughter for a wallet for my birthday. I am still waiting. Kids have an attention span that is shorter than a dog or turtle when it comes to thinking about their parents. In the grand scheme of things, kids know parents do everything for them. But in the coolness factor, parents rank on the same level as the palace slaves did in the Roman times.
In spite of the obvious slights, I am sure your child loves you very much. Maybe if you just told her that you love her (no guilt), she would appreciate it more.
Sorry spider, i'm too big on letting people know they are appreciates on occasions like this. I never missed one mothers day etc when i was a teenager. In fact, i looked forward to spoiling mum. I did up untill she died a few years ago.
And i tell Alix i love her more than anything else i say to her. I get the idea that you think that if i was a better mother to her, i'd get a better response from her. And to that i'd say that you have nooooo idea :o)
