I was a wreck for the last 10 minutes.

We didn't really spend any time together except breakfast. It's not like he dropped the ball or anything. He cleaned the kitchen before I woke up, put out a fresh bouquet on the table, and made a stellar mother's day breakfast followed by a pineapple upside down cake (my favorite). The morning together was perfectly lovely. Then he seemed super detached the rest of the day.
It was rainy and gray and snuggling on the couch sounded good. DH didn't want to watch TV. He said he doesn't like sitting around all day, which I get, so I offered up board games, but that was also a no. Instead he pulled the truck into the shop and cleaned it out while DS and I snuggled up for the Mandalorian. I wish it had been sunny and we could have gone to a green house, walked a path, or been outside in the yard together.
Then we went to my aunt's for the afternoon and dinner with my side of the family. My family is pretty loud, and it's never really an intimate setting with them. He seemed so bored the whole time.
I wanted all of us to enjoy the day together, but I felt like DH just wanted the day to be over already. It's just not how I thought I'd feel at the end of the day, so I cried about it. Then I felt ungrateful for crying over my Mother's Day after all the effort he put in and cried because I'm selfish. Luckily I waited until we were going to bed to start my waterworks, so it was short-lived.
On a positive note, he woke up today and told me "Happy Mother's Day plus 1". He stayed home late this morning and we all had breakfast together before he went to work and I brought DS in to school. It was a nice morning and will be a nice day outside together this afternoon.

@kboydbowman We looked it up and some local stores may choose to keep it, but overall it has been discontinued. We found out from our favorite Subway too. We're going to check with a couple other local ones as well as the one(s) we usually stop at when heading to the coast, but consistent feedback on the Internet is "no longer carry GF bread."

Editing to add: have far from Battle Ground, WA are you? It's about 20 mins north of Vancouver. They have a really food Thai restaurant there called Keo Thai. They have gluten free options. My sisters often get the glass noodles in place of the non-gluten free option.
