This weekend went by way to fast. Friday my 2 boys that are in elementary school gave me their Mother's Day gifts that they made for me at school. My oldest wrote a poem and my youngest filled in a questionnaire about me but also made a few more things for me. He made me 2 pictures and a shirt. The shirt had 2 flowers on it which the flower part were his handprints. It was cute. I think it's funny when they fill in questionnaires about me especially when my 6 year old thinks I'm still 21.
On Saturday we just relaxed at home. I didn't really relax since I had a lot of studying to do plus cleaning. I was supposed to go to a comedy show Saturday but couldn't find a babysitter. I don't think I can remember the last time I went out. I guess that's the life of a single mother.
Sunday we went to my parents house and celebrated Mother's Day with my mom for a few hours. The worse part of the day was when we went to get my oldest new shoes. My 4 and 6 year olds weren't too happy that they weren't getting new shoes. I tried explaining about how his shoes were really worn so he needed the new shoes. Just my luck though they showed out and embarrassed themselves in the store. Luckily my mom was there and was able to take them to the car while I paid for the new shoes. My mom was embarrassed how they acted and she didn't like how people kept staring. I could care less what people think but don't worry they won't be acting like that in public again. I set them straight when we got home. They will not be doing anything fun for awhile because of their actions. I guess that is all that really happened.
home made gifts are the best gifts from our children :)
ReplyDeleteKids...what are you going to do with them? lol
ReplyDeleteI miss the homemade/handmade mothers day gifts from my kids.. They are all grown now.. I got a card from one, and a early morning call(1 am ) from one.. he's ok though cause he's serving our great country so I cant be mad at him for such a late call lol.. but for the other two...
ReplyDeleteaww! I can't wait for Ethan to get a little older to receive homemade gifts
ReplyDeleteHomemade is the best! You hafta think, no one else is doing it for you. Being parents, these days, is tough enough when there are two. One parent three kids You might have to take one out, just to keep the other two in line. lol
ReplyDeleteI got some on Friday to it was so cute. People are always going to give looks when a kids make a tantrum but either they don't have kids or there kids are worst so like you I don't care what other people think because its a face and it will get better. And that doesn't make you a bad or good parent.
ReplyDeleteI agree!! Hand made gifts are the best! I still have my son's gifts through out my house!
