Mom's Are The Best

Why I love my MOM*

This was sent to me by my friend Kathy! I think it pretty much looks like every day of my life except it's missing a couple of things. I bet most women can relate to this list!

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.

Anything extraordinary here? Wonder why women live
longer...?

CAUSE THEY ARE MADE FOR THE LONG HAUL..... (and they can't die sooner, they still have things to do!!!!)

Send this to five phenomenal women today...they'll love
you for it! THEN, GO TO BED! (Okay, maybe not yet)
