So sweet. :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mommilsister-get-you-a-mothers-day-card-or-present/page/2#post-1640468 Fri, 16 May 2014 15:20:36 +0000 HLK208 1640468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom gave me a plant and a Kate Spade purse and wallet (so, so rare - I don't remember the last time she spent that much on me! Before I was an adult, probably).</p> <p>My sister sent me a card. My other sister baby sat the LO's over night. My MIL didn't say anything or sent a card - which doesn't bother me because it's typical of her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mommilsister-get-you-a-mothers-day-card-or-present/page/2#post-1640450 Fri, 16 May 2014 15:11:34 +0000 2PeasinaPod 1640450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! My MIL gave me a small gift card which was very sweet. We had everyone over our house for the day and all of the moms (my SIL, her mom, my mom, my MIL) all did a flower exchange!

MOST appreciated and MORE than enough :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mommilsister-get-you-a-mothers-day-card-or-present#post-1639256 Fri, 16 May 2014 09:23:04 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 1639256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My MIL wished me happy Mother's day but her present to me every Mother's Day is my Sunday paper subscription. So that's enough for me. No card</p> <p>My sister sent me flowers but that was super special and has never happened before! Needless to say I was thrilled and smitten.</p> <p>No card from my SIL or any sort of recognition but she and I aren't close so I'm okay with that too.</p> <p>My mom didn't get me a card or anything but I forgot to get her one too so I understand. I fed her dinner Saturday though! That counts, right? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mommilsister-get-you-a-mothers-day-card-or-present#post-1639247 Fri, 16 May 2014 09:19:49 +0000 Amelieisme 1639247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>MIL did, but my mom didn't. I wouldn't have expected MIL to do anything because my family doesn't do that kind of thing so it was unexpected, but nice! </p>
