So Mother’s Day. DH and I argue about it every year. Of the 5 since I became a mother, I’ve spent 4 of them with my MIL.
Reached a head today when DH said he was going to invite his mother for the weekend (we are already going out for lunch with her on the Sunday). I said that I was hoping to do something just us on the Saturday and that I didn’t really want to spend the day sorting beds and catering for his mother. He replied that my treat is going out for lunch with his mother and extended family on the Sunday. AIBU to be miffed? It’s really not how I would choose to spend the day.
Probably a bit more sensitive over the importance of the day due to a four year battle with fertility issues and consequent heartbreak..
