HAPPY MOTHER\u2019S DAY<\/h1>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

This one will be short and sweet because I have to go pack to fly to New York on Mother\u2019s Day to see my own little mother! Shamefully, I haven\u2019t spent that day with her since 1994, so I\u2019m really excited to do it this year. (She sees her other children on that day, so don\u2019t feel bad for her. But you can feel bad for me because I always feel terrible about it.) I usually don\u2019t visit in May because I\u2019m there in April and July, but this year, I figured it was about time.<\/p>\n

My mother\u2019s not a baby at all about any holidays. She\u2019s thrilled when people acknowledge her, and loves to receive dolls, and cream puffs, for any occasion, but she never wants anyone to hassle. My father was the same way, so I have no idea where I get my love for all things holiday from. And if it involves gifts to me, all the better.<\/p>\n

So, anyway, I want to wish every mother a wonderful day. And, if you\u2019re someone who\u2019s celebrating a mom this week-end and, like I, still haven\u2019t shopped, you should check-out my Gift Ideas column from the other day. At the very least, maybe you can get a head start on Father\u2019s Day!<\/p>\n

To every good female in the world, Happy Mother\u2019s Day, whether you\u2019re officially one or not. Even if you don\u2019t have children, you can always be a mutha<\/em>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
