Okay, what do we do on our birthday? Among other things, we cut a cake, blow out candles and make wishes, right? So then if on Mother’s Day, if we mothers were to cut a cake on the day and blow out some candles and make wishes, what would our secret wish list look like? Gets you thinking, right? Here’s a few wishes right off the top of my head; and you are welcome to add your own in the comments section... #1: We wish our kids were more like us/ not so much like us (depending on the situation we are dealing with :D)

The first time I wrote an essay on ‘Mother’, was when I was in school. Scouting for ideas, when I went to ask Dad to tell me something that I could use in my write-up, he said something that I have never forgotten till date. He said “After God made the world, he wanted to be around to see that all that he had created, was running smoothly. But then, he couldn’t be personally present with everyone at the same time…..so then he created a ‘Mother’ for every home. That way, he knew his creation was in good hands”
