[quote=Anonymous]My husband got soooo close and fumbled the ball. I was traveling for work last week so I expected nothing beyond a "happy mother's day" because it's unreasonable to ask him to plan more stuff while solo parenting. He got some kind of potted plant that was on the table when I got home Friday, which was nice. He said he hadn't gotten the kids to make cards and I said that's OK, he had enough on his plate. Then this morning they all just...forgot. I said multiple times "hey guys we have to call Grandma to say happy mother's day before church," "get ready to call Grandma for mother's day now," etc., and not one of them made the connection. Literally just listen to the words I'm saying, think "oh it's mother's day?" and say it to me. NOPE. I had to tell my husband to teach his kids that. And I am still sulking that this grown man in his 40s couldn't make that connection. Hope any future DILs I have are cool with skipping mother's day, because that's what my sons are learning.
