One day after Mother's Day I decided to bring here something that has been bothering me since the birth of our first child: how to properly celebrate Mother's Day?
At first it may seem like an "non-issue", but as a married man I always had the impression that when starting a family and becoming a father, the ideal mother in our lives, in a way, becomes the mother of our children. My wife thinks a little differently and thinks that while our mothers are alive we must enjoying these moments with them and our children, but I think that this "tradition" for our still young kids becomes a kind of grandmother's day.
I know that it is possible to reconcile and consider the day of all mothers in the family, my question is just who to really prioritize, especially because the deserved respect and recognition does not depend on one day of the year.
And who is curious to know the motivation for this post... I bought a better and more expensive gift for my wife than the gift of my mother. So, how do you rationalize this issue?

Interesting perspective. I hadn't thought of it that way yet
