Emma informed me that this coming up Monday is Happy Kids Day so I have to get up in the night when they are sleeping and surprise them with Happy Kids Day stuff that says I love you and Happy Kids Day.
Mom: Oh, who told you about Happy Kids Day?
Emma: I just made it up but if you don't want to do it Monday while we're sleeping you can do it Thursday while we are at school.
Mom: Ok. Maybe I'll do it Thursday so I don't have to get up in the middle of the night and not get any sleep, then I'd be grouchy and I wouldn't have very happy kids.
Emma: Good Idea. Then Thursday while we are at school make us crafts and fun things that say Happy Kids Day and I Love you and then surprise us.
Mom: Ok...
Emma: (runs down the hallway towards the bedrooms) Jake - she said she'll do it! she said she'll do it! Yeah! (and the hug and celebrate the upcoming Happy Kids Day celebration).
I guess with Happy Mother's Day and Happy Father's Day she was feeling kind of left out that there wasn't a holiday to celebrate kids! I bet Halmark would love to hire her - one more holiday to sell lots of cards and presents.
So if anyone wants to celebrate Happy Kids Day with us - Thursday is the day.
Sounds so fun! I'm glad you guys decided not to do it on Memorial day and got your own day for your new holiday, though!
ReplyDeleteI love it. My friend came up with her own holiday once too. Kamakazi Chicken Day . . . it's a long story . . .
ReplyDeleteIn Poland, kids day is June 1st!
