What Moms Really Want
for Mother's Day
For my teenager to
announce "Hey, Mom! I got a full scholarship and a job all in the
same day!"
Five pounds of chocolate that won't add twenty
To have my 14 year-old daughter answer a question without rolling
her eyes in that "Why is this person my mother?" way.
A grocery store that doesn't have candy/gum/cheap toys displayed at
the checkout line.
To be able to step on a plane with my toddlers and NOT have someone
moan, "Oh no! Why me...!"
Mothers come in all
shapes and sizes. For example, an Italian Mother might chastise her
offspring for not eating by saying, "Eat your dinner, or I'll kill
you." A Jewish Mother on the other hand would say, "Eat your
dinner, or I'll kill myself."
If evolution really works, how come Mothers only have two hands
?
Personally, I think today's kids ought to do something really
special for their Mothers on Mother's Day -- like move out
