\"Allen<\/a>Mother Day will be here in 5 short days. Here are 10 things I love about the holiday.<\/em><\/p>\n

10. Mother’s Day is the one day of the year where moms get the pay off for losing their figures, years of sleep deprivation, and total lack of privacy: breakfast in bed that consists of burnt toast, rubbery eggs, and cold coffee served with a side dish of crumbs between the sheets.<\/p>\n

9.\u00a0 Wannabe women actors improve their acting skills when their children ask them if they like the kittie earrings they picked out as a gift.<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0 Mother’s Day and spring flowers appear in tandem. Perfect timing!<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0 My early Mother’s Day present was an espresso maker and my daughter, the barista, who will give me lessons on its operation.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0 Mother’s Day means going out to eat, and thus avoiding the what-to-make-for-supper decision, not once but twice: once with my mom and once with my kids.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0 Spending a substantial amount of time selecting the perfect card for Mom. Not an easy task since so many cards don’t describe her style of mothering. At. All. But I enjoy the task and always manage to find one that makes her smile.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0 I appreciate spending Mother’s Day with Mom more as the opportunities to do so dwindle year by year.<\/p>\n

3. May 11, 1929 was both Mother’s Day and Dad’s birthday.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0 My adorable grandkids: Sam, Molly, and Tad.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 My children, Allen and Anne. Could I love you any more?<\/p>\n
