It is pretty low key here with flowers and possibly a meal somewhere. <br />I'm so sorry you lost both of your parents so young. I so worry and wonder how my grandson is going to be after losing his mother at 5 1/2 although he has a wonderful dad and now a step mother.

I don't think we had Mother's Day in Germany when I was little. My mother died when I was ten ( and my father shortly afterwards ) and we never celebrated it and my memories are getting fuzzier each year. Of course it is also possible that during the immediate years after the war people had other things to celebrate or worry about.<br />I know that the day now exists in Germany and is celebrated, just don't know when it happened and how ignorant I was in regard to it for lack of a mother. I don't like the commercial aspect of it and here in the capital ( and I bet in all cities over the planet that celebrate the day ) all that is going on in especially restaurants on this day. Food is all of a sudden more expensive due to " specials " that are really not special, the menu is limited, people are rushed to make space for others and it's just a big money making deal. Where I live in Mexico City often restaurants do not accept less than four people to a table and they give 90 minutes for the meal. I don't know how it is this year with MD falling on a Sunday. I would like to think that everyday could/should be Mother's Day...lol... and that we all should take this into consideration .Droelmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03345997104299037878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34246214.post-27586144510016985872014-05-08T19:43:34.560-05:002014-05-08T19:43:34.560-05:00Christine - Great idea.

If you are aware often you will get little messages, not necessarily words, of their being with us. I've been without parents since my early 40's so I don't really think about it much anymore.

I and the family suddenly lost my mother 25 years ago today, with her birth date falling on the following Sunday and still after all these years, the memories flow along with my tears of self-pity and lonely loss each Mother's Day. The majority of those our age are orphans, aren't we? Being isolated makes it worse, I'm very aware.<br /><br />Caddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07575600935524610154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34246214.post-62489510799463189662014-05-08T16:49:00.474-05:002014-05-08T16:49:00.474-05:00And happy Mothers' Day to you... every day of ...And happy Mothers' Day to you... every day of the year!Retired Teacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03697897155105288077noreply@blogger.com
