Gorgeous day outside, I'm going to try to go with that.

My only daughter who cut me/us out of her life for over a year now, sent a token Mother's Day gift with a word processed noted that expresses no love no feeling. It felt like a dagger in my heart causing more bleeding and a flood of tears that can't stop. This is not a peace offering...it's just so she can cross me off a list and make peace with herself that she sent a "caring gift".
I'm going to write her a handwritten note to send it back to her. If I can't be part of her life, what's the point of a "gift". There's nothing behind it.

I hate Mother's Day, some stupid token holiday for commercialism. Mothers should be honored on your birthday...that's when they became mothers, grandmothers, step moms....There are lots of moms who lost children, they don't love this day either...it just brings up heartache and sorrow.
