I got an alarm clock for Mothers day. And if that was not bad enough, I got no cards from my kids. I have always said, a homemade card is the best, so no worries about the $. When I asked him why he didn't have the kids make me a card (or make one from HIM), he answered ;You are not my mother'. That went over like a LEAD BALLOON! I don't think he ever really understood why I was so upset.
