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!"

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 ! |
