Every Mother’s Day (and virtually every holiday, birthday, anniversary), Dan has a hard time coming up with something to get me. I thought I’d take pity on him for the kids sake and post some recommendations for the three of them.

For Dan to wear something other than boxers around the house for this one day. (Yes, they are short-like but I have this feeling the girls will be horrified when they’re old enough to realize they were seeing their Dad in his underwear all these years).

For Ashley not to ask me to pull her finger the entire day (which will require great restraint and sacrifice for this silly 7-yr-old)

For Kaylee to figure out a magic formula to bypass all the query/synopsis/marketing strategies/competitive analysis/author bio’s/manuscript history, etc, ect  needed to submit a few sample chapters to a literary agent and just get me published already (what, she is a genius–I think she can, I think she can, I think she can).

For the kids to get along peacefully the WHOLE day (okay, if I could figure out a way to do that, I WOULD be published, lol).

So, whatdya think–am I too demanding? (Dan, you’re soooo not allowed to answer). HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY TO ALL MY FELLOW MOMS (and especially my own).
