Today was ‘Muttertag’ (mother’s day) in Germany. I had originally planned to send my mum a card as well as flowers, and had even bought a card back at the British Mother’s Day some time in March.
I didn’t send anything in the post, however: I couldn’t remember her precise address 
So, all she got was a phone call – but she was very happy about that (shocked/happy/surprised). I hadn’t phoned her on Muttertag in the last 10 years or so (I never cared enough, and only as I get older I realise how much she went through and how much I owe to her)
