A Mom’s Christmas List

'Tis the season for lists of wants...





Chores that are done without being asked.

No laundry to fold or wash or dry (or iron or hang up or put away).

Dinner planned, shopped, prepped and cooked.  Dishes done too.

More hours in the day or less things that MUST be done.

A calendar that lists when children will need new shoes and clothing for budgeting purposes.

Children whose eyes DID NOT roll back in their heads.

Floors that kept themselves clean and shiny or vacuumed. 

Pets that walked, fed and watered themselves.

Beds that made themselves.

A mysterious benefactor that would finish all the remodeling projects (and pay for them too!)

A meal eaten hot, a cup of coffee not warmed up.


What is on your Christmas list?
