But Don’t Make Her Work!

Mothers are a special breed. No matter what you try to do for them, they always seem to end up working, be it serving, cleaning, cooking, or simply lending a helping hand. They wipe the kids’ noses, clean the window smudges, bathroom toilets, floors, feed pets, and often do it all with a smile. Now here’s what you must do for “mom” on Mother’s Day — don’t make her work!

She is not to cook or clean. YOU handle that — with a smile!

Among some escapes that may help get your mom (or wife) out of the routine are wine and beer festivals this week in California.
