Mother's Day

I know it's two days late, but HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all of you!

My third Mother's Day was nothing wonderful, but I expected that. Aden doesn't stay with me on weekends, so I wouldn't normally have seen him that day. I asked his dad to bring him over when I was off work, though, and he stayed overnight after that, so I did get to spend some time with him on that day.

Other than that, I didn't do much for it. I spent the night before at Boyfriend's house, and he made sure to give me a big kiss and a hug in the morning, because he knew I was bummed about not getting to see Aden until later. Oh, and one of my friend's moms said happy Mother's Day to me the day before, which pleased me quite a lot. I worked until after six the day of, and then I got to go home and see Aden. He (or actually, my sister) got me a cute picture frame that says "Super Mom" on it. I can't wait to print off a picture to put in it!

One day I'd really like to have a real kickass Mother's Day. We used to do things for my mom on Mother's Day -- I'm sure we gave her breakfast in bed at least a couple times, and we've gone for chinese food every year for the past few years. One day I hope I'm lucky enough to have a child/children that want to do something really special for me. Hell, I hope I deserve that one day! I always tried to make Father's Day really special for Aden's dad ... but he never really put effort into returning the gesture. He figured since I wasn't HIS mom, he didn't have to do anything ... but TO ALL THE DADS OUT THERE ... when your kid is just a baby, yeah, you DO have to do something for the mom! That's just how it works!

Ugh ... oh well. The dreadful day is over and it won't be back for another year.
