If you struggle with Mother's Day, you're not alone. Today I'll share an idea I had about 10 years ago. It was nearing Mother's Day and I had a desire to show my kids that I appreciated them making me a mother. I chose to buy them each a book for Mother's Day. Listen in to hear my Mother's Day Peace Challenge inspired by that experience. Or watch here.
An AI summary of why some women's don't like Mother's Day: Some women don't like it because it's heavily commercialized, because it puts pressure on being perfect, it creates extra labor rather than a restful break, it triggers sadness because of strained relationships, personal loss, infertility, or the pressure to perform happily while you are struggling with motherhood.
When I've struggled with Mother's Day, it was because I felt inadequate, false guilt (or mom guilt), or because I was missing my mom.
One year, I got my kids gifts to celebrate Mother's Day to say: thank you for making me a mom and I am glad to be your mom.
Mother's Day Peace Challenge: Answer this question: What do you want this weekend to look like? Then comes the challenge: Listen to what your heart or mind answers and if it feels good, do it!
