Enjoy a Pre-Mother’s Day Celebration
Have you ever heard the saying, “Happy wife, happy life?” Well, that’s definitely true. But you know what else is true? A happy MOM is absolutely essential! That’s why I find Mother’s Day a bit amusing—not in a “ha ha” way, but more like, “Why am I still cleaning up messes on MY special day?” Honestly, that’s not really funny at all.
Now, I know some of you keyboard warriors are ready to fire off your comments about being grateful for motherhood and how some people can’t have kids and all that. I hear you! But let’s be real—I acknowledge that every single day of the year. So why should we feel the weight of it all on the ONE day that is supposed to be ours? Enter the concept of a pre-Mother’s Day celebration.
A friend introduced me to this idea about five years ago, and it’s been a game changer. She and her friends gather at a fabulous resort just outside Los Angeles the day before Mother’s Day to sip champagne. All day. In the sun. While chatting. Without kids. Some even indulge in MASSAGES. At the end of the day, some take a cab home while others stay overnight at the resort.
Now, to those of you who are still reading, ready to leave a snarky comment: I get it! Mother’s Day is fantastic, with everything from breakfast in bed to homemade macaroni portraits and all the extra hugs and kisses making every bit of effort worthwhile. But let’s not forget the pure joy of having a PRE-MOTHER’S DAY celebration.
Dads, Pay Attention!
This is your chance to score major points. Yes, I’m typing in ALL CAPS to emphasize the benefits of a pre-Mother’s Day celebration. You know what I mean, right? Just think of it this way: If you go above and beyond, you might just be rewarded in return. For example, last year, my friend’s husband booked a suite at a local resort for a bunch of us to enjoy a day by the pool, and then we stayed for a fun night of girl talk. The next day, the dads showed up with the kids, and everyone was in a great mood.
Picture us painting each other’s toenails, having pillow fights, or giving back massages while reading some steamy novels. It doesn’t matter what we do as long as you make it happen. You wouldn’t believe how high that husband was placed on a pedestal after this little adventure! The other dads looked like amateurs, but now they’re all competitive and want to take turns doing this each year.
And guess what comes right after? FATHER’S DAY! Yes, those golf clubs you’ve been eyeing might just magically appear, along with a day to use them. It’s a win-win situation. Dads, help us unwind, and we’ll make sure you get pampered too!
I should mention one tiny downside to the pre-Mother’s Day celebration: you might not feel 100% on the actual day. But you know what fixes that? Gatorade and ibuprofen. You’re welcome! So go spread the word about this pre-Mother’s Day celebration!
In Conclusion
A pre-Mother’s Day celebration is a fantastic way for moms to unwind and enjoy some time with friends.
