If You Give a Mom a...

Mama’s Losin’ It
 
If you give a mom a break...
 
She will sit in exhilarated excitement for all of five minutes, and then will decide to run one quick load of laundry.
 
After she sees the pile of laundry in the laundry room, she will feel guilt and decide to fold the rest of the laundry.
 
As she puts clothes away, she will see the trail of toys on the floor and pick them up.
 
And, of course, after picking up the toys she will decide the floor needs a once over with the vacuum as she can now see the pieces of dirt that were hiding under said toys.
 
While vacuuming, she will catch a peek of her children's rooms, and will immediately begin disaster relief efforts to bring back a semblance of order.
 
Then, she will reach for a mug to have some relaxing tea and realize the dishes need to be done... So she'll do them one by one.
 
Once the dishes are done, the mom will realize grocery shopping needs to be done, and will dutifully head to the store.
 
In walking around the store, loading up her groceries, she spies luxurious bath salts and hot chocolate, which reminds her...
 
That she really wants a break!
