what is wrong with celebrating mothers day? its very nice to say that every day is mothers day, but does every husband/child treat their wife/mother like a queen every single day? yes, she is loved and appreciated every day, but it is not necessarily demonstrated to her every single day. there is nothing wrong with demonstrating love and appreciation. mothers day is a halmark day- no religious/pagan/other reasoning behind it, at least to my knowledge, so we are not condoning something assur by “celebrating” it. and besides, even in your celebration, what are you doing already? telling her she has one day off from doing laundry? making her a nice breakfast? taking her out to eat? getting flowers? none of those things are terrible. perhaps if wives/mothers were shown a little bit more appreciation for their role, this would not even be a question.
