Happy almost-Mother’s Day to all those baby mamas out there who are crushing it. To the ones who are working hard to raise babies, punch time clocks and so on and so forth. You work it 365 days a year, usually without any thank you, awards or so much as time to enjoy an extra generous pour of wine during the witching hour.

Mother’s Day is a day where, in an ideal world, you would get to do you. You could wake up, leisurely enjoy a cup of coffee and, maybe, nibble on one of these honey nut biscuits. There’d be flowers waiting at your bedside, and well-behaved children would have already fed, groomed and entertained themselves while you adjusted to the morning light.
