My mother is alive, but Mother's Day is still one I prefer to ignore.

Yes, I'll call her and wish her a happy Mother's Day, but it's almost painful to do, and it's out of responsibility and to set an example for my son rather than any genuine feeling.

I was not ever "mothered" by anyone...and, as a mother, I find myself making it up as I go along.

Difficult day that pushes all kinds of buttons for me.
