Pamper Yourself This Mother’s Day
In an ideal world, Mother’s Day would be a full 24 hours of pampering and relaxation. Your kids would prepare you breakfast in bed to show their appreciation for all that you do for them, and you’d receive flowers and chocolates throughout the day. But let’s face it, we don’t live in the ideal world, and more often than not, you have to make your own breakfast and buy your own flowers.
This is especially true if you are recently separated and adapting to being a single parent. Our team of Calgary-based family law lawyers have put together their ultimate guide to Mother’s Day to help you have the meaningful day you deserve. No matter if you’re a mom, stepmom, adoptive mom, mom-to-be, or grandma, it’s your day, and you can create new and meaningful traditions for yourself and your family.
Here are just a few ideas to show yourself some love this Mother’s Day.
