I made my mom homemade chocolate dipped strawberries (she loves chocolate dipped strawberries).

Not sure how it's celebrated in Japan, though.

My sensei said that it's common for them to make their mom a card.
For my mom i made her a card, my dad made tons of food and we watched anime.

Aw, I wish my family liked Anime like that, but we know this Otaku . . .Very bad example >.>

MMM, read the translation again, where it says "some pamper their mother by cleaning the house..."

My husband's family don't do anything special for Mother's Day. They consider it to be purely commercial and also not traditionally Japanese- my father-in-law was particularly against anything very commercial like that.

Caerula, the flower usually given here (and elsewhere) on Mother's Day is a red carnation- is that maybe the same flower that you are calling a "pink"?

In German this flower is called "Nelke". I´ve checked the translation and figured out that you can use besides "pink" also the term "carnation " :)
