Mother's day is coming and there are plenty of sales going on out there in the shops. Clothes, shoes, bags, chocolates, flowers, bathroom sets, you name it.
I have a sale going on for my online bookstore, Ling's List , too.
But as a mum, what do I really want this Mother's day? I don't mind a book to read, nor some good food to enjoy, but really, what is it that will make this Mother's day so special?
I don't know about you, but one thing I lack in motherhood is privacy. I miss those days before I had a child where I could go to the bathroom uninterrupted, or have a bag completely all to myself without biscuit crumbs and baby wipes, or I could wear a skirt/dress without having to worry about someone sticking their head under it.
This Mother's Day, I'd like to at least be able to go to the toilet and bathroom in peace. Doors shut, no uninvited toddler poking its head in and asking, "Mummy, what doing?"
I shall wait and see...

I'm hearing you Yining. It does get better the older they get.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ky! I'll be looking forward to that day!
ReplyDeleteLoved your post... strangely similar to my request for MDay too I think!
ReplyDeleteAnother thing to add to your list is to eat a meal in one sitting...or finish a cup of tea without a trip to the microwave to reheat.
Hope your day is a good one.

Hey Georgina, yes I'd like to finish a meal in peace too! Like I could sit down, look at my food or my book from when I start eating to when I'm done and not turn and look at another little person making a mess! Hope you'll have a great Mother's Day!
