As a divorced dad with half-time custody, I was on my own for Mother’s Day weekend. That’s as it should be, since my kids were celebrating the holiday with their mom. (I made sure they had gifts for her, and I called to wish her well on the day.)

The school has seven period days, and parents visited each [...]
