Ninety Five: Moms

Sometimes kids need their moms to reassure them that 

everything is going to be okay after they've had a bad day.

Or to celebrate with them when something great happens.

********

But then, sometimes kids just need their moms to do the little things.

Like an invitation over for home made chile rellenos.

Or a nice warm greeting in the front yard, including a hug and two Tums for heartburn.

Or feeding your kids dinner and answering their every need while you lay on the couch.

That's exactly what I needed my mom for tonight.

Dear Mom,

Thanks for my dinner.

And for making my kids a separate dinner.

And for the girl talk.

And for being there for me while Jeff had to work late.

I love you! And I love your rice. And I love your gossip magazines.
