Happy Mom's Day
Sunday is mother's day.
And for some day, it is a day of melancholy for me.
I adore my kiddo. And I know she's crafted some pretty cute stuff for me at her school. We are going on a date tonight. To go eat some sushi (aka shooshee).
But I miss the days of getting flowers or something nice from a significant other (a grown up man who wants to kiss me).
To me, Mother's Day is the dad taking mom and the kids out for brunch. Lots of homemade cards and a nice little gift from dad.
Instead, I'm spending Saturday babysitting, and probably will spend Sunday grocery shopping and getting ready for the work week ahead. Maybe I'll take Zoester out somewhere for pancakes.
I'll get over it as soon as I see my smiling kid though. Can't be sad with a cute lil' face like that.
Awwww - what a cutie pie! Love that pic - I know what ya mean about mother's day. Last year I took Christopher to the grocery store and let him pick out flowers and gave him the $$ to pay. Not quite the same but he did pick out the flowers himself. It was funny too, because instead of picking out a bouquet from the white plastic buckets they keep them in, he brought me the whole bucket! Have a happy Mother's Day from one single mom to the next and as my mom says, "Every day is Mother's Day".
