ImperatorFuriosa Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I dragged myself out of bed and DS gave me a Darrell Lea bag, a funky mouse pad and a baby Yoda keyring. I'll probably be waiting a while for DS18 as he sleeps like the dead. DP is working today and DS11 has karate grading so that's my day. Dinner, I have nfi.

Magdalena Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Some T2 cups & saucers, some warm fuzzy socks, a candle & notebook and a pair of indoor what my kids call "Mumma Boots" - they're not really ugg boots but more like a boot form of slippers, just from Big W lined with soft stuff that is not at all sheepskin lol. I get extremely cold feet in winter, hence the socks and the boots! I wear both 24/7 from about now until October here in Melbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fruitmincepies Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 The 3.5yo made a lavender bath bomb at daycare, and filled in one of those adorable question and answer things - apparently I’m 6yo, my job is watering the plants, and my favourite thing to do is clean up the kitchen. DD made some chocolate balls at school, and her Q&A said that my favourite thing is coffee. DH is bringing me a coffee while I watch DD’s sports training, and I’ve asked for an hour of peace later to read and drink tea. Perfect.I should add, DS walked in with his present and wished my a happy Father’s Day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henryk Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I got no sleep (teething baby, sick toddler), wrapped up with an early morning poo explosion from the baby. Absolutely delighting in the joys of motherhood today!No presents but DH helped DS make a card, and he Uber Eats-ed me a coffee and made pancakes so I’m ok with that.

Grumbles Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I got some cookbooks (I don’t do much cooking these days and it is a chore for me not an interest…) but the package DD6 brought home from school is lovely. Thank you to the teachers and educators who put so much effort into making sure their students have something special to give their mums - it has been the highlight for me.

lazycritter Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I was scrubbing vomit off the carpet at 500 am thanks 11 year old. He projectiled from the ensuite door back across the bedroom. He's normally really good with getting vomit in the toilet without mess. However it's mothers day, so carpet was clearly the number one choice. However I'm still in bed now having had a coffee and box of Ferrero rochers (sp?) brought in to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazycritter Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 The primary schools my kids have been to have gift stalls for mothers day but you have to send money to school for the kids to bring something back. It's a money making exercise for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you to the teachers and educators who put so much effort into making sure their students have something special to give their mums - it has been the highlight for me. Yes, the craft DD made at school was lovely, her teachers are amazing. They made paper flowers in little paper cup vases. And a card!

It's a money making exercise for them. Indeed it is. The P&C at DD's school uses it as a fundraiser and directs the money back to the school, which I don't have a problem with. And the older classes help run the stall and learn about handling money, change, customer service etc. All in all a positive thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
