Mommy, Mom, Mother, it Comes in Stages
Today is Mother's Day 2012 and Mother's everywhere are being celebrated by their children. For some Mommies breakfast will be a grand affair burnt toast, waffles, pancakes, and just about any other well meant and badly prepared breakfast food small children (and sometimes husbands) can dream up. Proudly served by beaming faced moppets with jam in their hair. As stated before, it is all well meant and Mommy will re-clean the kitchen later.
The Moms of older, but still at home tweens and teens, may still get breakfast in bed or fast food take out. They will present their tokens with smooches and smiles. Then it;s 'Mom, I'm gonna hang out for awhile.'
Mothers, ah Mothers, there are stages to this. Her children are grown with families of their own. Many have moved far away, they call, text, and send cards and gifts to celebrate. Mother goes to brunch or lunch where the fare is never overdone.
So today, if you are a Mommy, the messes have been bigger. Mom, the antacids in the cupboard. Mother enjoy the rest.
