Mother's Day/Father's Day

How do you folks deal with those days? Do you hope the entire day will go fast so you can forget about it? Or does your family do the same things they would with a bio-parent? Do you ever get flowers or a gift? My stepson left a voicemail message on our machine wishing me a Happy Stepmother's Day, and I cried, because I was touched. You want recognition, even with no bio-children of your own, yet it's hard to ask for. Strangers wished me happy Mother's Day, and I thanked them (with no explanation). It felt good.
