I, in fact, ruin everything. He had no choice but to call off Mother's Day. There will be no more flowers for me, my garden will soon be pulled out, and rats will fill my home. Howz that for a Mother's Day greeting? When I tell him not to speak to me with disrespect, I am informed that that makes me even meaner.
On the way to swimming lessons, he asked me for another batch of caterpillars and I foolishly let a bit of sarcasm slip and responded that maybe he should ask some other nice mommy. With no sarcasm of his own, he said, "ok, I'll ask your mommy."
Fantastic, maybe she will also house the mice, lizards, and birds you want; give you your dinner right now; and let you give the cats "bathez" each morning before the sunrise. Yes, that sounds pretty good about now.

Creepy-crawlies? Just say no! I've held off on snakes (I'm afraid to say "over my dead body") but a nice leopard gecko is a good compromise. Ours is almost cute!
I love that "Okay, I'll ask your mommy." Heee! Reminds me of the saying "The reason grandparents and grandchildren get along so well is that they have a common enemy." :)
Hope the holiday gets reinstated in time. :)
Oh boy, you are in for it!
Ohhhh what a mean mom :)
