Lol, what a conundrum. But I really think it's up to your son to call you first.

If by mid afternoon you haven't heard, by all means call her and put your son on the spot. At that point he deserves it.
By the way...............

Can you call your DIL on her cellphone?
Happy Mothers' Day, MissMillie!

... ask her not to mention this call until tomorrow.
Happy Mother's Day.
Happy GrandMother's Day.

(38,562 posts)6. My DIL sent me at text at around 5:00, and my son called at around 8:30
Son spent the day giving his wife the day off from "Mom-duty" so he was pretty busy w/ 4 year-old Lily.
