Mother's Day Tea

Olivia and her entire Kinder class has been planning a 'Mother's Day Tea Party' for over a month. 

During that month, I woke up to Oliva asking me "How many more days until the Tea Party?"

Every. Single. Day.

Leave it to Murphy and his lame law to give her 104˚ fever just two days before the big event. 

No matter how much Advil or Tylenol I gave the poor kid – she just couldn't break the fever.

The first day, she pretty much slept the whole day. 

 

The second day, she was to adamant about going to the Tea Party the following morning, that she faked her way through the pain, and kept telling me she was fine. Yet, I kept catching her rocking baack and forth in the fetal position, while holding her head in pain.

*Insert broken heart here* 

Fortunately around 6:00 pm – her fever broke!

So...the "right" thing to do is to wait 24-hours before sending your kid back to school. 

However,  the "awesome" thing to do is to let your kid go to school to enjoy the event they have been anticipating for the last month.

Admittedly, it didn't hurt that it made me "The Best Mom Ever". 

The next morning, I arrived with my exclusive invitation and was escorted to my seat. 

I was then served a lovely breakfast complete with a croissant, fresh fruit, muffin, and orange juice.

I was then given a flower pot pen, as well as a coupon book. 

Additionally, I received a book of reasons why Olivia loves me. 

Apparently I give the best hugs and make the best muffins.

Don't be jealous.

Just sayin'...

After breakfast, the kids pampered their mom with manicures, pedicures, hair-do's, and makeovers.

I must say my nails have never looked so good! 

They also sang songs, recited poems, and showed us their amazing artwork.

I'm so glad she felt well enough to go to school!

I would also like to apologize to anyone who got sick because of my selfishness. 

If it makes you feel any better...look how freakin' cute we are!
