To all those moms out there on the escapist who took that plunge into mother hood willingly or not, congratulations! Thank you for everything you do for your kids be they grateful or not, may you have many wonderful years in the future! For those of you who haven't wished your mother a happy mothers day... what are you doing reading my thread? Get on a phone and "phone home" and wish that tired, weary, and stressed out mom of yours a happy mothers day... because it's your fault for all those grey hairs on her head.

Again, Happy mothers day escapist!

[Optional Opinion]

I just did some research (if googling mother's day counts as research) and apparently US Mother's Day and the UK Mother's Day are different.

Mother's Day was the 3rd of April for us (UK)
"Mother's Day in the UK always falls on the fourth Sunday in the Christian festival of Lent. The day is called Mothering Sunday."

Mother's Day is today in the US
"Mother's Day is celebrated on the second Sunday in May in... the US"


Strange, who knew?

Well it's not too late... scratch that, maybe for you, but, it's still mothers day in Australia, Canada, and the US.

(buy her some flowers and just say they got lost in the mail I dunno make up an excuse.)

It was Mother's Day ages ago.

Apparently wiki tells me it's held on various days, dependant on your country. The more you know.

Edit: Gah, bloody ninjas. Double gah for ninjas that are more precise than I.

My mother is actually in the next room having a business discussion on the phone, so I should probably wait.

But to other mothers on the Escapist, Happy Mothers' Day!
