this year i'm sure it will soon be forgotten as well - as it was very much a day meant for my MIL. it will surely be quite memorable for her, not in a good way i suppose; as she had to help baby-sit my 2 active yet whiny monsters while waiting for almost 45mins for her lunch treat. and to make it extra memorable; it was food that she didn't really quite like! sigh... can't please everyone. in case i forget, we did ask her what was her liking and she said anything is fine. there!
by the way, we had lunch at mayim... food was salty, as commented by MIL and the timsum were not up to par. oh well, i'm not a choosy person, so long i can have food to eat for energy to run after my kids; i'm fine with it. but i digress...
and the afternoon was spent tending to the kid(s) and at one point in time, i almost had a meltdown when both of them were crying and screaming and whining non-stop; all to get my utmost attention and hopefully, for me to ditch the other at a far-far away land!! i wish i was a far-far- FAR away land at that point in time.
i guess i will soon forget this year's mother day - the only remembrance being a card from moncherie (which she helped color a little bit while the rest was made by her nursery teacher, as usual) and the fact that my helper probably had a better Mother's Day this year (out enjoying herself and her friends as it was her day off) than me.
ah well... let's hope things will be much, much, MUCH better next year.
but for now, i'll just keep my fingers crossed.
