Mothering Sunday is not a Hallmark day.
I do not do Father's day, but Mothering Sunday and the association with actual mothers is not the same.

It's still another bullshit day
designed to part the masses from their beer money.
My mother and I long ago reconciled the fact that I don't need a special day, once a year, to show her how much I love her and I'd be a poor son if I did.
Even saying I cooked dinner is a bit of a cheat because I cook Sunday lunch every week for both my estranged ( from each other, not me ) parents and anyone else who'd around .
We had 8 today but I'm glad they have gone.

I draw the line at anything beyond birthday cards
oh and I inked my sketch seeing as it is going to be destroyed in the painting and I quite liked it.

It's because she looks brunette in his 'sketch'.
And everyone knows that brunettes are 10x better than blondes.
