Somebody once told me, "You don't do anything, you're only a mother! Why would you want a day off?" If I don't do enough in a day to deserve a day off, then tell me who you've hired to be the following, so I may be "ONLY" a mother:
- Chef
- Dietician
- Housekeeper
- Maid
- Janitor
- Laundry Person
- Veterinarian
- Zookeeper
- Groundskeeper
- Gardener
- Doctor
- Secret Shopper
- Entrepreneur
- Bookkeeper
- Drill Sergeant
- Seamstress
- Decorator
- Party Planner
- Chauffeur
- Referee
- Entertainer
- Party Pooper
- Plumber
- Carpenter
- Nanny
- And the list goes on, and on, and on!
This Valentine's Day take the time to appreciate the mothers in your life. They deserve a lot more than a box of chocolates. Mothers work hard at being a mom and in some cases a wife. Give appreciation and let them know you know how hard they work to make your life a better one. And for the mothers out there that have a helpful father by your side, let him know how much you appreciate him too. You have a rare jewel of a husband!
