While putting the finishing touches on a picture frame for his grandmother this morning, my 7-year-old son asked, “Mom, when is it Kids’ Day?”
Kids’ Day? Really?
“Every day is kids’ day,” I responded.
I guess I understand the question, in a way. We made plans this morning to go get flowers for his teacher and the school nurse because it’s appreciation week at his school. And like I said, he and his sister were completing Mother’s Day gifts last night and this morning. I also know their teachers have had them making giftst for me as well.
I don’t know about making a designated Kids’ Day, but if there were a petition, I bet my son would be one of the first to sign it.
I’ll just remind him that every day, I make breakfast for the family. And on wonderful mornings like today when we all wake up a bit early, we get to cuddle in bed before making our way to work and school. And when they need new underware or socks, or even a break from cleaning their room, mom and dad step in.
Yup, every day is Kids’ Day!
