Mothers' Day is an interesting concept. It seems simple enough, but like being a mother, it isn't. In any case, the kids and I will go to my mom's for the afternoon. I informed my 5yo that tomorrow he can't give me any trouble. Whatever I tell him to do, he has to just say "Yes, Mama" and do it. The look on his face was priceless. He didn't expect that one bit. He expected that he'd get to eat cake and that was it. I could see him wondering whether it was some kind of legal thing or if he could get away with bending that rule.
I did get an interesting greeting though. I get a weekly email from my grocery delivery service. This week's subject line: "Hot Meat Specials for Mothers' Day". Yeah, um, that's really thoughtful of you all, but I'm all set for that, thanks.
