What mums really want
A new mummy of one says: “What I want for mother's day is a day at the spa. But I'm sure that I will want to get home at least an hour before my daughter sleeps because I know I will miss her”
An older mum with grown up kids confirms: We all just want a day off! It's tiring to be a mom. Well, for a woman who basically has everything, I don’t really...a nice lunch or dinner with the family will be good for me I guess.”
A stay-at-home mother of two pre-teen children shared: “A nice long holiday with the family without working, cooking, cleaning n rushing all the time.”
Yet another, a flight stewardess mum of two, confirms similar sentiments: “Just a day of rest…”
