...to not want to go and cook lunch for MIL for Mothers Day..

[Squirdle]

...Dh's words this morning 'Ooh we could go to Somerset this weekend and cook lunch for mum'

My words 'Er excuse me but I need to point out two vital pieces of information here. No 1 - it may have escaped your notice but I am a mother too and so will not be cooking for ANYONE on Sunday and No 2 MIL is not my mother, she is yours...so you can cook lunch'

Only trouble with this is that if he cooks lunch I will end up with the children which kind of defeats the object.

I recieved a rubber chicken for Mothers Day 2 years ago.....

I have just had one of my worst mothers days. I had a really bad tummy bug yesterday which my hubby caught today. (although no where near as bad) My son was sick overnight and I spent at least 2 hours comforting him and clearing up his vomit. My lovely children both under 5 made me lovely handmade cards and hubby brought one 2. My present was a new washing machine. Which I had to order today. I know I need it as handwashing clothes on mothers day was no fun. I received no help at all today yet yesterday when I was ill he went off to footy as normal.
