Why We Love Our Moms (and wives)
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 and 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.
Anything 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!!!!)
Send this to five phenomenal women today... they'll love
you for it! I just did.
THEN, GO TO BED!
