Mother’s Day is just around the corner and you are probably looking for just the right Mother’s Day gift for a\u00a0special mommy\u00a0in your life. \u00a0And while I have tons of great craft ideas, any of which\u00a0would make an awesome Mother’s Day gift like any of my hand or footprint crafts <\/a>or this cute Butterfly and Flower diorama<\/a>, here are the\u00a0Mother’s Day gifts\u00a0she really wants but won’t ask for:\"What<\/p>\n

Potty Privacy<\/h3>\n

Getting to use the toilet without interruption or having to listen to chaos or cutting it short due to\u00a0a crisis\u00a0is just a dream for most mommies.<\/p>\n

\"potty<\/a><\/p>\n

A Long, Hot Shower<\/h3>\n

An uninterrupted\u00a0shower where I didn’t have to rush it because of a crying baby or get in and out quickly as to not waste too much of my precious nap time would be awesome!\"shower\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A Hot Cup of Coffee<\/h3>\n

Speaking of hot, how awesome would it be to be able to make a cup of coffee and FINISH it before it got cold!? \u00a0(without having to reheat multiple times, of course, that doesn’t count!)\"microwave<\/a><\/p>\n

A Real Vacation<\/h3>\n

I pretty much start and end every day with the thought “I need a vacation!” \u00a0This doesn’t necessarily mean I’m desperate to get\u00a0away from my\u00a0kids but love getting away\u00a0from diaper changing, food preparing, putting kids to bed\/nap, breaking up fights, etc.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Sleeping In<\/h3>\n

I don’t even remember what this feels like. Four kids in seven years means my body has been\u00a0on perpetual early wake-ups and just one morning of lying around in bed without a baby on my boob or attacking my face is just a dream!
\n\"mommy<\/a><\/p>\n

A peaceful, hot meal<\/h3>\n

I don’t even remember what it’s like to eat a whole meal at home while it’s still hot and without having to get up to get things, tell my kids to be patient or hold the baby. \u00a0No matter how much I prepare, I just can’t seem to make it happen!\"hot<\/a><\/p>\n

Peace and Quiet<\/h3>\n

Just a few minutes of quiet and everyone getting along would be the best.thing.ever!<\/p>\n

Plus more of this:
