Mother's Day Wishes

As I sit here, 40 weeks pregnant with a baby that will make for three children under 3 years old, I am thinking of what I want for Mother's Day this year. First, I started thinking big:

• Silence


• A cupcake induced pregnancy


• Uninterrupted sleep

Then I realized those were the thoughts of a crazy person and I moved more towards reality, yet still quite wishful thinking:

• Family waiting on me hand and foot


• No fussing, fighting, whining or tantrums


• Something shiny and possibly sparkly as well

So then I moved on to actual possibilities:

• Foot rub {I don't care who gives it to me - I'll take one the checkout lady at Central Market for crying out loud - I just need a foot rub}


• Mani/Pedi


• Flowers


• Acknowledgement that Mother's Day actually exists

Then I reminded myself I have an amazing husband that regularly takes the kids to do something so I can have silence, gets up with them so I can sleep in some mornings, brings me flowers for no reason and always picks out the best most shiny things I could ever dream of. So really, for Mother's Day, I just want to spend it with the family I love so very much. I would not be a mommy without any of them! {But if someone can figure out how to get a cupcake induced pregnancy, let me know stat}
