Mother’s Day Gifts You Can’t Buy

I asked my mom friends on Twitter:

What is one thing you’d like for Mother’s Day that CAN’T be bought?

I got a variety of answers. (Love some of these!)

• MrsMoNJ wants: Baby #2 without the labor 🙂
• hurriedhomemakr wants: To sleep in!
• Nikki_S wants: a day with no kids arguing. Everyone gets along and helps one another. Do I HAVE to choose just ONE THING??
• TheAngelForever wants: good health for all of my family members. Of course, on a lighter note…I would also love a day to sleep and do what I want.
• typeamom wants: Time of course! Oh, and QUIET!
• evolvingmommy wants: Help with planting my garden is my Mother’s Day wish.
• MommaIncredible wants: I would loooove a baby… Not. Gonna. Happen. #infertility [you deserve a hug!]
• FireMom says: I’m not the one to ask about Mother’s Day. For me, and for others, recognition by society for non-traditional mothers. Stepmoms, birth mothers, adoptive moms, foster moms, mothers of miscarriage, mothers of infant loss. List goes on. [I’m good with that!]

I may add more to the list as the tweets keep coming in, or you can leave a comment… What would you like for Mother’s Day that money can’t buy?
