Mother’s Day: For the Love of God, Mom Just Wants a Nap

We’re two weeks away from Mother’s Day, and if you haven’t thought about a gift for the moms in your life, that’s okay, because all you have to do is:  Give her the day off.

Every year, moms are asked what they want for Mother’s Day, and they’re ALWAYS hinting at the same stuff:  A nap, the day off doing EVERYTHING for the family, and handmade gifts and cards.

In a new survey, 94% of moms say they’d like to have more sleep, and HALF of the moms said that “a nap with no one needing you” is the ultimate luxury, with the next-best “luxuries” being:  “Eating a meal while it’s hot”, “not making any decisions”, and a “solo bathroom break.”  (???)

60% of moms say they’d happily trade gifts for the chance to sleep, almost two-thirds of moms haven’t had a nap in the last month, and a quarter of them can’t remember the last time they napped.

Yes, thoughtful gifts are nice, flowers and dinners out are appreciated, bonus family time is special, but nothing shows your appreciation for what moms do, more than DOING IT YOURSELF, so they can put their feet up.
