My worst Mother’s Day present was last year. We did nothing, there was no card or gift, my hubby was hung-over from the night before and slept half the day. I was also 9 months pregnant with #2 so I was miserable. 🙁

Nothing – that’s right. Kids were too young to know better and hubs forgot (they don’t advertise too much for Mother’s Day on ESPN!)

I haven’t got a bad present for Mother’s day yet, but on my 1st Mother’s Day a few years back, my husband took a 3 hour nap while I was with a teething baby. Needless to say I was a little ticked…lol.
My worst present was a toaster oven… I never said I wanted or needed one.
I like Stella & Dot (on facebook too)!
All I asked for was a pretty little travel coffee mug. Instead I got a metal water thermos (I detest water). lol.
Nothing. I keep telling myself, it isn’t important… it isn’t important… 🙂
I got an overpriced vase of fake flowers this year…. I subscribe to your emails also.
I know “like” the Stella & Dot Facebook page also, thanks!
A microwave bacon cooker. Yep.

This past Mother’s day. Had to stay out the night before until 5 am with my husband then got up late and had to buy my mother in law a gift and I didn’t get anything lol! My hubby said he would make it up to me though!

Worst Mother’s Day gift… a garden hose. We needed one, but really? Poor husband learned to give better gifts after that. LOL.
Hmmm..I don’t think I have ever gotten a “bad” Mothers Day gift, but I just have a two-year-old….so plenty of time to get one. My worst experience so far is having our brand new air conditioner not work on one of the first hot days in KC (today)…but it’s getting fixed now.

I’m a mom-to-be so I haven’t really had a chance to have many misses on Mother’s Day presents. I didn’t get an official tangible present from my hubby yesterday, just some TLC–so it’d be nice to win this!
I have never received a really bad gift, but this year my daughter decided she liked the gift she made at preschool and kept it for herself. She let me keep the empty gift bag and card.
I’ve only had one Mother’s day!! I suppose though … the worst gift would be nothing at all. I’d even take a sweet hug or handmade card … but dear me, we must celebrate any day we can!! 🙂
Thanks for the giveaway!
I subscribe!! 🙂

I have only had 1 mother’s day and I didn’t get a present. So I would have to that’s my worst present, none 🙂
Last year i didnt get anything for mothers day. I dont think you can beat that. Anything would have been at least an effort.
The worst gift I got was nothing!
worst gift- hand held vacuum for the stairs :/
My worst Mother’s Day gift was a propane tank for our grill. Seriously.

I work in VERY male dominated field and my groom (I think it’s more endering to call him my groom rather than husband) doesn’t get to see me dress like a girl very often; it sure would tickle him to see me all “dolled up”! It might even get me a night out!

I’d say my worst Mother’s Day gift was absolutely nothing…my husband was convinced for the first year of our daughter’s life that since I wasn’t HIS mother, he didn’t need to do anything for me for Mother’s Day. Somehow, he wisened up…this year ‘our daughter’ bought me a gorgeous Pandora bracelet! ;o)
I get your emails!!
I’ve only been a mom for two years now, so I haven’t had any bad gifts! However, my husband was sick last year (and we were traveling 5 hours home from a wedding with a young baby), so that was definitely a negative about last year’s Mother’s Day!

Thanks for all you do and enjoy your weekend!
My worst Mother’s day present was when my ex-husband didn’t get me anything at all for mother’s day and he saw nothing wrong with it- You notice how I said Ex lol

I had a cold on Mother’s Day so I was in bed most of the weekend. The worst present was getting magazines from people (magazines that I already subscribed to).
