Not sure how comfortable I'd feel "guilting" my daycare parents into "appreciating" me but I guess if it works for them, it's cool with them.

See that would be like a couple of years ago when hubby said to me "Did the kids tell you Happy Mother's Day? I texted them both and told them to." It really meant nothing to me after he said that know what I mean? I wanted them to say it because they meant it, I know he was reminding them, but him telling me that just ruined it he could have kept his big mouth shut.
