The Expectations vs. the Realities of Mother's Day

Because you are Mommy, there really is no break. Not even on Mother's Day. When your toddler is thirsty, he will still want Mommy's kind of water (i.e., he wants Mommy to get it), and he'll still require you to put him to bed (even if your partner is more than willing and able). Think of it this way: you are really loved, Mama.
