All I Want for Mother’s Day
All I Want For Mother’s Day…
- Time with my mom.
- Time with my kids.
- For my kids to stay healthy and live happy, productive lives.
- World peace.
- The end of hunger and abuse.
- Food to magically appear in my fridge.
- A good parking spot at Costco.
- A butler, maid, chef and chauffeur.
- To be completely done with laundry.
- For my dog to come into the house without poop hanging from her butt.
- A sparkly, clean house.
- A house remodeled by Chip and Joanna.
- To finally win the HGTV Dream Home only to then sell it because of the enormous property taxes, but at least I could say someone actually did win it.
- To get a spray tan that stays forever.
- To have a hairdryer/stylist robot from the Jetson’s.
- For my yard to be magically weed-free.
- For Kansas to be flanked by mountains on one side and the ocean on the other, without earthquakes, hurricanes, forest fires, avalanches, mudslides or tornadoes.
- For Zumba to become an Olympic sport.
- To have a non-sport day (remember I’m a mom of three boys and a soccer fanatic husband…and I think we have 3 games this Mother’s Day).
- To teach my boys what my mom taught me: No matter the situation, the highs, the heartbreak, the struggles, we can get through anything together. Love (and laughter) binds us and will always get us through.
I’ve learned that I was put on this earth to be a mother. I love my boys with every molecule of my being even if none of the above happens this Mother’s Day!!
