Here’s what we really want for Mother’s Day

You probably didn’t miss it, but this one Sunday is Mother’s Day. And for more than six years for me, Manon, and almost five years for Virginie, we were mothers.

As a result, we are entitled each year to the little gifts lovingly made by our girls and those purchased by our boys.

It’s super cute and we love the attention (we never say no to presents, what do you think?), but there are actually some things we REALLY wish we had for Mother’s Day, except for a pasta necklace that smells like dried slime.

So, on the other hand, let’s say it right away before we get criticized and called bad mothers, this article is funny. We prefer to specify it, before the gallows land in the country of the right-thinking.

For Mother’s Day, Manon would like (non-exhaustive list)

Yes I know, I’m asking the impossible, but if I really were asked for my opinion, here’s what I would like for Mother’s Day. And every other day too.

• Sleep more than 8 hours straight, without interruptions
• Peeing with the door closed
• Take a long (and hot) bath.
• Eat hot (and not warm or cold)
• Eat an ice cream to the end, without having to give the end of my Clittle bear
• Look at something other than Snow Queen AND Viana
• Listen to music other than the soundtrack of Snow Queen AND Viana
• You don’t have to look for the duvet of the day (and of the night)
• You don’t have to get up at night because the curtains are shaped like an owl (?)
• Not having to explain what babies are like
• Don’t answer the question “Why” for the twelfth time in 6 minutes
• Being able to fit into my pre-pregnancy jeans
• Having a private secretary who could handle all my admin phobia for me
• Get me a good hangover without having to pay the consequences the next day (ie my daughter woke up at 7:30)
• find the button “worn out” of child
• Don’t finish the dish because otherwise “It is a waste”
• Watch a movie to the end without falling asleep
• Going out for a drink with my friends SUSPENDED

Virginie would like for Mother’s Day (non-exhaustive list)

If you had to honestly answer the question “what would you like for Mother’s Day?” », here is roughly what would come to mind, in no order of preference, because I’m not difficult:

• Being able to walk around the apartment without risking slipping on a plastic vegetable at any moment
• Spend a day without having to listen to “Dansons la capucine” or, even more annoying, “Mon âne, mon âne”
• Recover some semblance of abdominal tone
• A long and soft hug with my daughter, that is, without her wanting to put her fingers in my eyes or pull my hair
• Don’t piss on me (literally) every time I laugh
• I spend the whole day in bed watching series while my husband supplies me with food every half hour
• Spend a weekend with my girlfriends without having to scan my cell phone every 10 minutes ” in case “
• Make me a face mask and let it sit for the recommended amount of time without my daughter starting to cry in anguish
• Ability to improvise last minute outings
• You finish reading a book that isn’t “To bed, bunny! »

Yes, so the noodle necklace and clay coaster will do, thanks, but no thanks.
