CSM Charles Hayden ,
Not yet but I will. The three most important women in my life are my wife, daughter, and mother.

Lost Mom 17 years back. And the Mother of my children is also known as my ex. Does this leave me off the hook?

I am actually commissioning on Mother's Day, so I am letting my mother and my pregnant wife pin on my butter bars before taking them both out to eat. Should be a great day.

Good reminder. Haven't bought the card as of yet. Will take her to Pechanga casino for Mother's Day meal after i get off work. And probably some Mother's Day bingo as well. Mom passed in 1975.

For those of you deployed, messagesinabottle.com and kindnotes.com are really cool ideas for gifts for your spouse while your deployed. My wife lived them.

I have purchased a card for my mother, future mother in law, future sister in law, and my little sister! I am definitely getting better at this Holiday celebration thing!

Why No. My Moms Passed but Haven't got anything for Granny Nagel, Mother of my Children or Mama Taylor (My Daughter) or Mama Nagel (My Daughter in Law) tks for the Gentle Prod. I'm thinking some Russell Stover's is in Order.

My mother is no longer with us, but I can't help remembering her and the love she gave...God bless her! I usually take my wife out for brunch on Mothers Day. God bless all you beautiful mom's who put up with your children and were always here for us!
