|                   WHY I LOVE MUM
   Mum and Dad were watching TV when Mum said, "I'm tired, and  it's getting late. I think I'll go to bed"  She went to the kitchen to make sandwiches for the next  day's lunches.  Rinsed  out the popcorn bowls, took  meat out of the freezer  for supper the following evening, checked the cereal box levels, filled  the sugar container, put spoons and  bowls on the table and started  the coffee pot for brewing the next  morning. She then put some wet clothes in the dryer, put a load of  clothes into the washer, ironed a shirt and secured a loose button.  She picked up the game pieces left on the table, put the phone back on the charger and put the telephone book into the drawer. She watered the plants, emptied a wastebasket and hung up a  towel to dry. She yawned and stretched and headed for the bedroom. She  stopped by the desk and wrote a note to the teacher, counted out some cash for the field trip, and pulled a text book out from hiding under the chair.  She signed a birthday card for a friend, addressed and  stamped the envelope and wrote a quick note for the grocery store. She put both near her purse. Mum then washed her face with 3 in 1 cleanser, put on her  Night solution & age fighting moisturizer, brushed and flossed her teeth and filed her nails. Dad called out, "I thought you were going to bed." I'm on my  way," she said. She put some water into the dog's dishand put the cat  outside, then made sure the doors were locked and the patio light was on.  She looked in on each of the kids and turned out their bedside lamps and TV's, hung up a shirt, threw some dirty socks into the  hamper, and had a brief conversation with the one up still doing homework.  In her own room, she set the alarm; laid out clothing for  the next day,straightened up the shoe rack. She added three things to her 6 most important things to do list. She said her prayers, and visualized the accomplishment of her goals.  About that time, Dad turned off the TV and announced to no  one in particular. "I'm  going to bed." And he did...without another thought. Anything extraordinary here? Wonder why women live  longer...? CAUSE WE ARE MADE FOR THE LONG HAUL..... (and we can't die sooner, we still have  things to do!!!!) Send this to five phenomenal women today...they'll love you for it! I just did.
   THEN, GO TO BED!     |
