August 15, St. Mary's day. At least with mothers we can be liturgical and celebrate mothers a bit. ;-) Yes?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291232.post-44481508357482201252009-06-21T19:34:01.550-05:002009-06-21T19:34:01.550-05:00LOL, Jen. I LOVE your hubby's way of thinking...LOL, Jen. I LOVE your hubby's way of thinking. In our church (amid some grumbling, but they know an immovable object when they meet it), we remember fathers in the prayers and I try to greet each father on the way out of church. That's the extent for us - it doesn't shove aside the liturgical day. Now, tell hubby that since the Church doesn't celebrate mother's day with a special liturgy, HE gets to when he gets home. You sit back and relax while he fixes the food, tends the children, and pampers you. After all, since you all do it for us 364 days of the year, we shouldn't grumble about doing it for you one day, should we? ;)William Weedonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01383850332591975790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291232.post-75538530524107887452009-06-21T19:26:07.497-05:002009-06-21T19:26:07.497-05:00Congrats on a great day.

y...Congrats on a great day. The meal sounds great.<br /><br />y husband says that Father's Day is "dumb" because in too many churches (thankfully not ours) it interferes with whatever Sunday of the liturgical year it's supposed to be. <br /><br />Fine. He doesn't care whether I get him anything or not, and it's pretty cool that I'm married to such a liturgically-minded guy. Problem is, what about Mother's Day? Maybe better if we don't speak of it.
