My husband asked me what I wanted for Mother’s day today, and I honestly and very sadly do not know how t answer that question. I told him to let me think about it…I never do anything for myself, so I am clueless. What are you doing for Mother’s day?

Mine feels extra hard most years. Our sons birthday is May 2, my birthday is May 3 and our anniversary is May 10th. For mothers day I normally just ask for breakfast I dont have to make and a new book.

I told my husband I want a breast milk ring made with my breast milk and he is also taking me to brunch because we are both in our friends wedding the day before and will be checking out of our hotel Mother’s Day morning so we won’t have our 2 kids then I’ll get to spend the rest of the day with my kids

My answer to this every year is, “I don’t wanna clean, I don’t wanna cook, and I want a full body massage.” Forget buying me anything, just rub my back and make me food

A relaxing day at home (with no cleaning involved 
) with my fiancé and kids would be nice! We’re always busy on the go- or working. As far as gifts, I don’t expect anything! My fiancé struggles with that part Bc I buy myself whatever I want so there’s nothing left for him to buy:joy:
But in the past he’s gotten me rings with my kids names on them, a cricut, a necklace… stuff like that…
I asked my husband for tickets to the immersive Van Gogh exhibit for Mother’s Day (told him to take me on a date night with it)

If it needs to be budgeted say nothing right now but when we have enough ‘I want this’ new jewelry, hair cut/color, massage, wardrobe etc. Have a price point set so he can go where ever and get a gift card/something picked out for you.
Sometimes I just want to take a shower without anyone coming in to go pee, I want to watch a TV show uninterrupted, I don’t want to clean/cook, no one gets to argue today everyone needs to get along!

My husband got me a switch and a game from each kid. I got it early bc I’m the one who found it randomly in stock at a Walmart near us and he knew I wanted it so told me to get it (go joint bank account lol)
Pick something you really want or just choose to not do anything all day. I got an early iPhone pro which it’s nice but didn’t ask for or need. I’m just grateful for his thoughtfulness.
The dishes done. Laundry folded. The boys bathroom cleaned. My car washed. A day to sleep in. I only need one of them and I’ll be happy

Hahaa im cheap i want 2 cute mothers day frames from dollarama with 2 pictures of my girls that i didnt take
I have trouble too. I always end up asking for something for our daughter.
My husband and I have been married 29 years have 3 kids youngest 21 oldest 28. We have never exchanged gifts we always just spend the day together. Mother’s day he cooks etc. Father’s day I do everything.
I want photos of my husband and daughter, preferably by a professional or just made to look like they were done nicely. It would mean a lot because my husband dosnt like having pictures taken
What ever I want 
I always tell my husband peace and quiet … never happens

I told mine I want some nice photos of the kids and I. Being a single mum for so long, I don’t have many photos of the kids and I. Now I have a partner to take photos so I’m excited.
Tell him to surprise you, it’s the thought that counts. Telling your husband what you want won’t feel like a gift, to me anyways.
I be happy with homemade cards and Ice coffee and family dinner.
I asked for a new set of gaming headphones! The kids broke mine with home schooling.

Nothing. I don’t know I am just not one for getting presents except for birthday and Christmas. I feel bad when he gets me something cause he is so darn hard to buy for and now I am gonna have to get him something for Father’s Day. 
Mother’s day/birthday date dinner. I hate gifts. My husband tell me to just tell him what to get and he will but honestly I have everything I want. So time with just the two of us. No kid pulling on me. Or he serves dinner so I can eat hot food.

Just a combined mothers day and birthday lunch, present wise ive asked for a handbag for my birthday and left mothers day up to my partner to decide 
Lunch date with him at a place out of town
My answer… your bankcard
I have toddlers so a diaper change free day & to sleep in is all I really want lol
I just asked if we could go to one of my favorite (fancier) restaurants as a family 
I ordered myself a canvased sign depicting the dates of my, children’s birth
I can’t really go anywhere or do anything this year because I’m 32 weeks pregnant and have been on bedrest since 17 weeks trying to keep this stubborn child in. I thought about asking for a French press because I’ve seen some on sale and have always been curious about them and if they do in fact make superior coffee over the coffee pot. Although I have been cutting my one cup a day down to none a lot of days recently because I worry about caffeine booting the contractions back up. 
Crap idk either lol
I wish I got the chance for a full night of sleep and to sleep in. I’m a single momma of two so that will never happen
I am a mom of 6 and I work hard to buy what I want. Mother’s day to me is quality time with my kids. We have a few traditions…if the weather is beautiful we do a family hike, it is the best time to get my kids visiting and enjoying the outdoors.
If it is not nice enough to hike we do a BBQ at home and movies or something together at home. I don’t need gifts but time. My children range from 13-23 years! My husband has NEVER bought me a Mothers day gift, Christmas, or birthday gift, EVER!
I asked for a clean car. Wash, vacuum, wipe down, just the basics. He asked if he was “allowed” to get me anything else in addition to that, lol. I mean, I’m not one to turn down gifts, so…
Ask for the day off: sleep in, get take out. Ask for money to get your hair/nails did. Ask for a massage. Ask for a date night. Ask for… one week of not doing dishes or folding laundry. Idk. There’s gotta be something that you would enjoy.
My husband always surprises me for Mothers Day. I just sit back and enjoy him enjoying coming up with surprises for me.
I ask for Lowe’s gift card so I can buy summer flowers later.
I get whatever my husband comes up with I always love it I do add in a shirt and coffee cup best part is spending it with my kids
My husband doesn’t usually get me anything because if l want something through out the year l just go buy it. We are just spending the weekend together and cooking steaks on the grill. It’s also our 31st anniversary that week. We will be going out of town for our anniversary but not that weekend as son graduates from college.

-half bar w/built in coffee bar for the kitchen (my own design built by him)
-new bookshelves (my own design built by him)

Man I’m jealous. My husband doesn’t get me anything for Mother’s Day bc he “doesn’t celebrate it”. But I’ll be darned if I don’t get him anything for Father’s Day. 
Probably just floating in the pool and grilling. And I don’t usually ask for gifts but I did ask for either a small green house or a raised garden bed this year.

I want like a personalized tumbler or shirt or something that says mama and has my girls names on it as well! It doesn’t have to be much, but it’s the meaning of the item. But I think my husband and I are doing a little picnic with our girls for Mother’s Day.
Nothing. It’s always the same week as my oldest sons birthday so we just celebrate him. Maybe we’ll go out to breakfast but that’ll be it for me.
My boyfriend bought me a couple new hoodies but I’m the type that if i want something i buy it or get it done he always tells me I’m hard to shop for
My mother died so I’m crawling into a dark whole until the holiday is over

MASSAGE, MANICURE, PEDICURE, FACIAL. (aka, some mommy-alone-pamper time)
My kid is the reason why I get to celebrate mother’s day, so I want to spend it doing activities with my family. A bake off competition, a science experiments day, going camping or kayaking, anything together makes me happy.
I want to be valued and treated well every day!
Rather than giving some “thing”, why not give some “time”? I received coupons from one of my children one year. “Good for vacuuming the house”. “Good for doing the dishes”. Things like that.
Daughter taking me for a pedi. Love it when we do it together. Lunch afterwards
I asked him I wanted to go out for some drinks with my middle school Best friend but he doesn’t like her Or the idea. I mean I’m still going I’m just want him to accept it.

I think we all feel like that sometimes. Just think of something you’ve thought ‘oh that would be fun’ about before and go with that!
…good question. Something I won’t buy myself, I guess. A mother’s ring, or one of those “make your own wine” kits.
I’d totally settle for a clean house though lol
I mean I hope the day is nice and I want to go fishing. But ultimately I want him to not ask me what I want to do and be thoughtful himself
I always ask to sleep late. This will be my 4th Mother’s Day. First I was pregnant. I always ask to sleep lol
