happy mothers' day

Why is it that each year for Mothers' Day I am reminded of the sometimes gross, daily grind that being a mom can be? King always wants it to be perfect and special and straight out of a Norman Rockwell painting. It is such a sweet sentiment, but I'm afraid it totally puts too much pressure on everyone. So much so that everyone falls apart. Ah, well. Better than not having kids, right?

Happy Mothers' Day to you, in whatever form it comes to you.
