I started a new tradition after my daughter was born. Instead of the day being all about mom, I have given her a small, very sentimental gift and card thanking her for being my daughter and reminding her of how much she means to me and is loved. I also write her a letter every year letting her know how proud I am of her accomplishments and specific details in who she has developed into as a person. It definitely has made the day more meaningful and special for both of us--without her, I would not be a mom!!

Do you have special activities or traditions you would like to share?
