My first Mother's Day

I'll be celebrating my first Mother's Day with my husband and my 7-month old son, Evan. We're having a barbeque with 3 other first-time parents who live in the same complex as us. One of the baby girls is one day older than Evan, and another baby girl is one day younger than Evan. What's really funny is that although we 4 families live in the same development and have babies of the same age, we never knew each other, until we met through geobaby.com! And now we get together on a regular basis. So thanks for a great website!

Happy Mother's Day to all of you mothers out there!
 
Typical Hong Kong Mother's Day

Like ALOT of Hong Kong wives i will be spending my first mother's day ALONE... well i will have baby with me but no husband. He will be out of out of town for a few days. Needless to say i have managed to make him feel really guilty and i'm sure he will shop sufficientlty to make up for it!
 
Mother's Day in Hong Kong

I will celebrate it with my 2 1/2yr old and 1 yr old boys. Of course with the "big Boy" (their father), too. No particular plan, but for sure we'll go to Church int the morning to thank God of what He gave us until now, especially for my 2nd boy who was born on the 28th week; Call my mom & my mother in law (they're not in HKG); Maybe I'll bake a cake and we all can enjoy it during tea time.
And after that, we shall wait and countdown for the next Mother's Day...............

:cheers: to all mothers in the world!
 
I have absolutely no idea how I will be spending mothers day but I know it will be special as it is my first (my son is 7 mths) and my husband is one of the most romantic men I know. SO I am looking forward to a very special day with my family. And even if it is a very quite day I will be incredibly happy because for me just being a mum is all I need. (opps that sounds a bit soppy but I am sure you know what I mean)
 
Kid-made Mother's Day cards

rani:

That's a tear inducer. My nieces and nephew make cards for their mother all the time, and I think I never know how much it really means to their mom until I've become a mother myself.

Can't wait to get the first hand-made card from our son. I know I will cry...
 
here goes my plan for my wife...

1. prepare "#1 Mom" banners at home and set it up before she wakes on Sunday.
2. will give her favorite flower (peach roses)
3. buy cake and ice cream, even small servings, as we try to limit our sugar intake - its the thought that counts.
4. attend mass for thanksgiving
5. will have lunch buffet at Shangri-la Kowloon - being consummate Filipinos that we are, we love lots of food served just like in a fiesta.
6. will arrange spa treatment in the afternoon, when Sabine .:formulafe takes her afternoon nap.
7. chat cam-to-cam with her sisters/mother in the evening. Sabine gets to chat wuth her cousins too.

[svasbt - having that cake on board a plane, wow - very resourceful! great!]

Just a simple gesture of thanking her and giving her a break for a difficult task of juggling career and motherhood.

now rani, can I get a special price :burnout: for being the first and only dad :bounce: who posted here :cheers: ?

cheers!
