With Mother’s Day just around the corner, millions of men will invade and plunder local stores to buy their wives, mothers, and girlfriends chocolates and flowers for Mother’s Day.
But men, do you know what a woman would appreciate more than a box of candy or a vase full of trampled flowers? Try offering some compassion, understanding and kindness; I know, I know, the flowers and chocolate are more convenient and feasible. Here’s a suggestion: why wait until Mother’s Day to be more loving to the mother of your children? You can start today with a few suggestions. I will take a page from the best-selling “Eat This, Not That” books.
Do this: When she pulls out the vacuum, offer to take the vacuum cleaner and do the vacuuming for her.
Don’t do this: Lift your feet up so she can vacuum the floor or tell her she missed a spot.
Do this: Tell her dinner was delicious, even if the dog passed on it.
Don’t do this: Tell her that her dinner was lousy or you need to go to the E.R.
Do this: Remember to buy her a gift. After all, she did carry your mini-me for nine months.
Don’t do this: Don’t forget Mother’s Day, even if she tells you not to make a fuss over it—she’s lying, she wants you to make a fuss over it.
Do this: When she asks if she looks fat, do what politicians do—lie, lie and deny.
Don’t do this: Don’t refer to Lane Bryant or Weight Watchers in your answer.
Do this: If she asks if you still love her, always use these words: definitely, absolutely or till the day I die!
Don’t do this: Don’t pause or tell her you have to think about it.
Do this: If she asks if you would ever trade her in for a younger model, tell her no because you prefer cougars.
Don’t do this: Say, “Hell yeah, when you turn 40, I am getting two 20 year old girlfriends.
Give these suggestions a try and I can almost guarantee you will have a nice Mother’s Day with your special lady. And if you implement these ideas into your daily routine, you will probably have a lot more peace and quiet in your house. I would like to take a moment to wish all of the mothers and wives that love and tolerate their sons and husbands a happy Mother’s Day.
