ANOTHER QUESTION
My daughter called this morning. She told me that she was planning to come home for the weekend because it is Mother’s day! Well hubby and I have been planning to go to the country so what do I do???????????
Do I stay home and spend time with my daughter or do I go to the country with hubby? Do I tell hubby we should just stay home?????? that I want to stay home.
I hate all these situations as I never know what is the right thing to do. Actually I would like to tell my hubby to just go alone. I could care less.
However my daughter is suppose to come home in a few weeks for Memory night and to be honest that is more important to me. I also would rather she didn’t drive here at night.
Then I’m thinking that maybe it’s Mother’s Day and maybe it’s important for her.
OY VEY! What should I do????????????????
Ask hubby if he’d mind if you both stay home this weekend, because it’s Mothers’ Day and your daughter wants to come visit you. He might be perfectly understanding. If he says he wants to go to the country, say “well you won’t mind me staying here this time, will you?” (if he does mind, he’s in the wrong, so if it comes to that you can say you’re going to stay anyway! But I bet he will understandabout it being Mothers’ Day and all…..) hugs, Nicky

Or… tell your daughter about the dilemma. Since this involves her, she can be part of the decision making. From what you wrote, it doesn’t sound as if she involved you in HER decision making.

Your daughter told you she was coming to visit rather than asking if it was a good time for her to visit. That’s a big assumption. I don’t know if the two of you regularly get together on Mother’s Day, but if you don’t, it would be nice if she had asked if that would work with you and your schedule. Just my two cents. =) What do YOU want to do?

considering Mothers Day is only once a year and the country is there all the time, I cannot see why there is such indecision. Your daughter is wonderful to come for a visit….I wish mine could. Count your blessings. hugs P

First question…why is there so much space between your entry and your notes? *smile* If it were me, I’d assume she wants to spend Mother’s Day with you. Don’t knock it. Wish my kids felt that way.
