I wish to enlist support to abolish Mother's day. My kid forgot about it, and yea, verily, into the Vale of Tears did we descend. My reasoning is if we get rid of this day, there would be one day less to make us miserable. No more "you can't go shooting your dang rifle. It's MOTHER's day!"

I strongly disagree with you my friend, and your attemp to ruin a perfectly good thread is very low.
The mothers should be honored every day, not only one day of the yr.
They have to put up with all the crap that us, their children come with and they never complain and love us anyway.
If your kid didn't remember, it's your fault, you have to make sure they don't forget about critical days like this.
I love my mother, my grandmother and my girlfriend is a model mother, she will go out of her way to fill the needs of her 2 teenager kids and I'll never complain about it.
So what if you didn't shoot one day, there's plenty of other days to shoot a darn gun
My wife was queen for the day. She was surrounded with as much love as is possible. Our two daughters and their husbands, along with our three grandkids were all here and dedicated the day to a "work day" for whatever she wanted done.
So at her request we built another flower garden and planted what she had picked out, re-planted two new roses in her rose garden, we put cypress mulch on her other flower gardens, we all ate pizza for lunch before continuing with her other request which was to repaint our upstairs dormer bedroom so that our oldest granddaughter will have a nicer place to stay when she visits us.
Afterwards, we all sat down on our outside deck, and either drank a glass of wine, or beer, or whatever each wanted. Now this is the third annual Mother's day "work day" and my wife was really appreciative of everything, as much as anything just having all our family together having fun.
Oh, by the way, the grandkids were entertained by various one's of us by a variety toys, a tall tree swing, a soccer ball, t-ball, and their favorite activity was having grandpa let them ride in his red two-wheel trailer behind the riding mower. They rode all around the yard with different ones on grandpa's lap acting as the driver. :right:
