Mother day traditions... for those who's mothers have passed on

1 Comment

I suggested to my wife about a week ago something new for Mothers Day... In our case both or our mothers (and fathers) have passed on. My mother about 2 years ago was the last one of our parents.

My suggestion was to spend part of the day talking about the good things our mothers did for us, our favorite memories, and our favorite memories of the other's mother.

My wife loved the suggestion and we took the time to do that late morning into the afternoon. It was so great - and so meaningful for each of us.

What do others of you do (or know people do) whose mothers have passed on (or perhaps never knew who their mother was)?

Note that my wife never had children and cannot at this point... so she herself is not a mother.

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    This is such a beautiful post. My mother has not passed on, but my grandmother (her mother) has. We sometimes find ourselves reminiscing about old times with her on Mother's Day but we don't have a ritual form of celebration for this, so to speak.

    I have a beautiful photo of my mum and her that was taken on a past Mother's Day, and I like to look at it sometimes and remember her...
