I chose not to acknowledge Mother's Day this year with my mom passing
just a week earlier on the 4th.
All I did was request my family not acknowledge to ME.
They all understood and did as I requested.
My husband & I did our "normal" thing of going to eat breakfast
on Sunday morning, but thankfully the place we went also knows
us, so Melody (our server) knew not to bring up the subject, she
is so sweet.
