Why I Love Mom
-
Mom and Dad were watching TV when Mom said, "I'm tired, and it's
getting late. I think I'll go to bed."
-
She went to the kitchen to make sandwiches for the next day's
lunches. Rinsed out the popcorn bowls, took meat out of the freezer
for supper the following evening, checked the cereal box levels,
filled the sugar container, put spoons and bowls on the table and
started the coffee pot for brewing the next morning.
-
She then put some wet clothes in the dryer, put a load of clothes
into the washer, ironed a shirt and secured a loose button.
-
She picked up the game pieces left on the table, put the phone back
on the charger and put the telephone book into the drawer.
-
She watered the plants, emptied a wastebasket and hung up a towel
to dry.
-
She yawned and stretched and headed for the bedroom.
-
She stopped by the desk and wrote a note to the teacher, counted out
some cash for the field trip, and pulled a text book out from hiding
under the chair.
-
She signed a birthday card for a friend, addressed and stamped the
envelope and wrote a quick note for the grocery store. She put both
near her purse.
-
Mom then washed her face with 3 in 1 cleanser, put on her Night
solution & age fighting moisturizer, brushed and flossed her teeth
and filed her nails.
-
Dad called out, "I thought you were going to bed." "I'm on my
way," she said. She put some water into the dog's dish and put the
cat outside, then made sure the doors were locked and the patio
light was on.
-
She looked in on each of the kids and turned out their bedside
lamps and TV's, hung up a shirt, threw some dirty socks into the
hamper, and had a brief conversation with the one up still doing
homework.
-
In her own room, she set the alarm; laid out clothing for the next
day, straightened up the shoe rack. She added three things to her 6
most important things to do list She said her prayers, and
visualized the accomplishment of her goals.
-
About that time, Dad turned off the TV and announced to no one in
particular. "I'm going to bed."
-
And he did...without another thought.
Any thing extraordinary here?
Wonder why women live longer...?
-
CAUSE WE ARE MADE FOR THE LONG HAUL.....
(and we can't die sooner, we still have things to do!!!!)
-
Now: GO TO BED!
