Mother's Day
She Needs to Give Us a List
I do not know why I wanted to buy something my husband's mother might like?
My Mom has been gone for 10 years this year.
I do not know why sizing of clothes never adds up.
Nothing from any country fits the same.
I bought another robe for my husband's mother.
One was too big.
Will the second be too small?
Why did I try to please my husband's mother?
When Bob and I first started dating,
He asked me, "make a list of things you think I need? Please?"
I did.
He gave the list to his mother.
She bought everything on the list.
This is why I tried to please her.
She was generous when I barely knew her.
She gave everything her son asked for to him one Christmas.
We never gave her a list again.
We were afraid she would give us everything on the list.
I wish she gave us a list.--Charlotte Fairchild
