    @KittyKat, you are so welcome. I personally was drawn to the snarkiness of it...

    @ ?, Thank you, I got my card today.  Been stalking my mail box for it.  I love it, I also got one from my mom today, and to be perfectly honest, I like yours better LOL. But don't tell my mom that.

    I have never seen my SM post EVER! I hope she got it.

    I haven't got mine either,which is totally fine with me. Maybe they don't like me.

    A very special SM @phdmommy sent one. She was my sponsor scary for my book,and I got so much more, the canvas print, tshirt, and other SM parafinalia.

    @CoffeeQueen, stalk to boards, usually one of the Mods (sorry don't remember names right now) will pin something to the top of the discussions, there was one for sponsor ship for the book, one for the cards, I think there was a few others while I was a lurker and didn't pay much attention too.

    @ashdawn684 Thank you so much!  The card is wonderful. Hubby is walking around impersonating the accent and it has me rolling.  My youngest opened it up before I got home today and of course thought he was "all that" when he presented it to me.  Yeah...he is a major card and gift thief.  If it is in the mailbox and he finds it..it's his, ugh.  I am so glad you got me...you are fantabulous!  Happy Mother's day lady!

    I don't think anyone should worry if we don't have our cards by Mother's Day....since we're all mom's....we know everyone gets a little busy and may not have gotten the card in at exactly the right moment to get to the destination on time.  Let's remember why we signed up...to make sure someone else gets a little recognition for the hard work and no pay of motherhood and hopefully bring them a smile.  So......basically.....let's toast each other for doing what we think is best for our kids...let go of the guilt of what everyone thinks we should have done to raise our kids, and enjoy our families for what they are (of course, only when you have time to do it)

     

    Since we're all going to be on different schedules for the weekend.....

    Happy Mother's Day Everyone !!!! 

    >:D<

    Your welcome @LifeOfChaos! I'm glad you liked the card, I had a very small selection to choose from, and that one was definitely my favorite!

    My SM only posted 1 time to sign up for the exchange. I hope she's received her card by now, and if she's lurking and reading this, Happy Mother's Day to you and all the Scary Mommy's. Thanks for everything you add to my life.

    After reading everyone posting here that they were opening their cards, I went ahead and opened mine. So, @handtowellady , thank you so much.. totally LOL'd, and wanted to high five you at the same time :)

    I really want to open mine but I have specific instructions not to. I am waiting with baited breath.

    @Ashdawn684, can you wear the earrings? Are your ears pierced?

    Think of your problems as challenges to overcome not obstacles to be avoided.

    Thanks @runbitchrun I got my card yesterday and I just couldn't wait until Sunday! I opened it and it totally made my day! Thank you so much!!! I hope all scary mommies have a great mothers day weekend!!

    @Lesbomom, that was me. I am sad to admit that I am a HUGE procrastinator. I am sorry to my SM recipient though I should've mailed it a lot sooner, I even tried to over night the card to her yesterday, but it still wasn't going to get there until Monday, the postman said because it was a small town. I hope my card recipient doesn't get disappointed. It's on the way!!

    I got my card today, @rahsgirl, and it was absolutely PERFECT! It totally made my day and I'm STILL cracking up!
    I have to share the text on it:
    Woman 1: "Do you realize how much mothers put up with?"
    Woman 2: "Don't end a sentence with a preposition."
    Woman 1: "Do you realize how much mothers put up with, Bitch?"

    You are awesome and I hope you get your ideal day for Mother's Day. You deserve it!

    I'm not bent out of shape that mine hasn't come in yet, but I am anxious because it will most likely be the only card I get :P
