i had a kick when i celebrated mother's day with my son yesterday ... he's such a darling! he woke me up with a peck on my forehead, whispered good morning and gave me a big hug saying those sweet little words: "happy mommy day!"
this is the very first time i've celebrated mother's day with my son fully conscious of what the day is all about. we kept each other's company for the day - had a long breakfast with milk and pancakes, played the with his electric car race track, read books, he helped prepare lunch and we baked a nice chocolate orange brownies. he was very keen on pleasing me that he kept asking how i feel ... "are you happy, mommy?", "do you need help in the kitchen, mommy?", "shall we watch the video together, mommy?". we also spent some time on the phone calling relatives and friends to greet them moms a "happy mother's day" - then he posed a very intelligent query. my son wanted to call his aunt in madrid to greet her a "happy mother's day", too - "mommy, it is ok to say happy mother's day to auntie even if she is not a mommy yet, right? for me, she is my second mommy" ... how sweet a thought! unfortunately, no one answered the phone - one way or the other, i made sure "auntie" got his message.
by the end of the day, my son concluded that it had been a long day celebrating mommy day ... he looked forward to celebrating his own Alex Day - "will it be soon?", he asked innocently. soon enough, i said ... soon enough indeed. i love days spent as this ...
