Heee heee nope that is so true! 6 am is sleeping in here lol (or 2 am if my DH decides to wake me up. In his sleep. And then vigorously deny it) I asked for potting soil and to go grocery shopping alone. My husband is not impressed with these requests.
I'm taking my wife to Mellow Mushroom for lunch. And I'm calling my mother, who lives far away in Idaho. A favorite Mother's Day memory - when I was a teen my step-dad and I got up early in the morning for fishing, and about 20 minutes in I caught a 33 inch muskie underneath our neighbor's boat dock! This is what they look like - those teeth will shred your hands if you're not careful.
I'm very grateful for my mother (and grandmother), who currently seem to be the only women in my life right now who are not nags and killjoys.
I made breakfast this morning for the wife and mil, first time I've made poached eggs. For all of you mother's out there, Happy Mother's day.
I'm so glad I still have my mother. We spent the day with my sister and her in-laws (and they are wonderful folks). First Mother's Day her mother in law didn't have her husband with her so we wanted to help my sister and brother in law support her. Was a very nice luncheon.
YouTube "mother" songs for the occasion! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLyNAgEekOQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuK0f-Zur9A http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGDGwDnJvps
I spent the day playing laser tag with my big bros and mommy, while my lil dude slept in his stroller in the middle! It was epic we got there at opening and nobody else was in the whole building but staff! We kept using my kiddo as base, or capture the flag. my parenting skills are not exactly top of there game.
Your kid should have been your "ace in the hole." You should have gone all action movie villain on them, grabbing your kid as a human shield for extra drama once you got surrounded! That's what I do when I'm caught in a Walmart shoplifting showdown!
I spent my Mother's Day making freezer meals. Yay me. And found out yesterday have been sending my kid to school all last week with bronchitis (and telling him to stop faking it) so its not like waving the top mother of the year flag either...
