So, with all the complications surrounding a stepmother’s role, just how do you celebrate Mother’s Day?
The answer depends on how well things are going in the home. For the stepmom who has some challenges with her stepchildren expecting them to celebrate her may be unrealistic. So, the honor falls to her husband. Even if your kids don’t join you take your wife out and tell her how much you appreciate how she serves your kids. On the other hand, if the kids do feel comfortable encourage them to write a card, make her breakfast, or take her out to eat. A big “thank you” hug goes a long way, too.
