American Mother's Day- Are You Celebrating?
I've already celebrated British Mother's Day by sending over some American foods that my Mum missed.
Now it's the turn of my American mother-in-law. We get on very well. Almost as if she's not my mother-in-law in fact.
So, what are you giving to your American mother-in-law this Sunday?

I know what I would like to give her.
5 oz of copper coated lead with a velocity of 500ft / sec.
Ooops did I say that out loud?

I believe my wife and her sister in laws are taking my mother in law to the English tea room in Carefree, AZ. This is where my mother in law got me these for my birthday last month.

Re: American Mother's Day- Are You Celebrating?
I've celebrated UK Mothers Day for my mum, and my daughter send me a card. I get to do it all over again here in the US with my three step children. No mother in law here unfortunately/fortunately. My son forgot mothers day in the UK so my husband explained that now he lives in the US, he was very lucky, as we haven't had Mothers day in the US yet!!

I can't remember if I rememered the UK mother's day or not. Now I'm thinking I must have got away with it, mum won't know it's mother's day here so I'll just leave it.
As for the Mother in Law here. Dunno. I'm leaving that stuff to the other half.
