How I Treat Myself for Mother’s Day.

How I Treat Myself for Mother’s Day.

I can’t believe that it is Mother’s Day on Sunday. I have been dreading this weekend because I unexpectedly lost my Mom last year and my first Mother’s Day without her is going to be hard. For the past eight years, my Mother, sister, daughter and I would treat ourselves by having a girl’s weekend away to the same location. This special weekend away was always so much fun and something to look forward to. With such busy lives where we didn’t make enough time to treat ourselves, we knew we would get away and do it for one weekend. After a little discussion, my sister, daughter and I decided to continue the tradition without our Mom because she wouldn’t have it any other way.
