My Wish for Mother's Day


This Mother's Day was not bad. I didn't get a new car with a bow on it; I didn't get a new Coach purse; but I did get some Ghirardelli Chocolates, a card, a yellow flower in a "hand-painted" Styrofoam cup, and 3 sushi rolls. I also got to take a nap with my son. My son is 3 years old, but he will be 4 years old in August, so technically, this is my 4th Mother's Day. This is my 2nd Mother's Day, as a "single mother." Though, it was a good day, I kept feeling like something was missing. I know what it is. Now that certain options have faded or been eliminated, I feel as if I am closer to narrowing down what it is I want out of this life. I just want a family. I want a husband and eventually more children that will be as happy to see me at the end of the day as I will be to see them. Sounds simple enough (though it is a complicated subject), but all I want next year is someone (an adult) to share my life with and be my partner and to love me...just the way I am.
