Well this mothers day truly shocked the hell outta me. I have 2 SS 14 & 18 who have never done anything for me for mothers day (SS18 once said happy mothers day to me years ago, and SS 14 once gave me hug years ago for mothers day but it was only bc DH said he should). Well not expecting anything today, my SS 14 says Happy Mothers day!! All happy and proud , not mumbled like some things he says. That alone blew me away. He told me not to clean the house or lift a finger bc today is my day. At this point I was really wondering who the child was. This is 100% out of character. So that alone made my day but then he hands me a card & a flower and says here this is from me & my brother. The card was so sweet & was signed in his handwriting from both of them. Since my SS18 is never around anymore ( he hasn't come to visit in 3 months) he is always out w/friends-so I sent him a text thanking him for the card & flower. He sends back 'ok'
Which I thought was strange but whatever. Then he pulls up in front of our house walks over to DH and says hello. So I was like oh hi, so nice to see you, I haven't seen u in 3 months, how is everything? And he just says 'fine' and walks away. He stayed here for about an hr, took some tools from the garage that he wanted to 'borrow' then he raided our cubords for food , made a mess of the house, didn't say 2 words to me, got up left and only said bye to DH so I said bye, nice to see you, thanks again for everything and he says 'yup'. Of all the days to stop over and be a grump, he had to pick a mothers day that I was actually being appreciated by at least one SS. No visit in 3 months and u just had to pick today. Really? Kinda put a bad taste in my mouth but at least one SS appreciates me, and that really means allot to me.
