The difference between Father's Day and Mother's Day... on Mother's Day, I slept late after a party the night before, skipped church and then took [profile] patgreene out with the kids. On Father's Day, I'm up early getting the kids breakfast and dressed and cleaning the kitchen while Pat sleeps in... the kids don't even know what today is. Still, I need to be balanced, not seeking appreciation or external validation. I don't need anyone. Time to reload the dishwasher... I can't get in the shower because James came home from his sleepover and grabbed it first.

Try letting Pat and the kids know in a somewhat more direct way than this post that it would mean a lot to you and would make you feel appreciated if they would make plans to do something? It's not too late in the day for something to happen, I'm sure.

They had gone swimming by the time I got home. Tonight... I'll probably take Pat out for dinner somewhere.

If you're not home all day, it would make it hard for them to do anything for you, no?
