To Be Appriciated on Mother’s Day



I feel a bit ashamed to admit it, but even after bragging on some awesome moms thinking about big things this year for Mother’s Day, my wishlist was still pretty shallow. I asked for a chocolate donut (mmmm, so bad), a gift card to get some more books (like I need more), and a nap. Oh, and I asked for a new tattoo also but I was already pretty sure we couldn’t afford the $200 I would need for what I want.

Of course the universe likes to teach lessons, so I got one on being materialistic and buying into the overcommercialized, HallMark sell out that Mother’s Day has become. I got a sink full of dishes, four loads of laundry (bedding and Dearest’s work clothes),  and a couple pair of Dearest’s work pants that needed new buttons sewed on.

Well then, next year I’ll ask for world peace.
