In honor of the March 11th release of the Walt Disney movie, Mars Needs Moms, SocialMoms asks what I think my child would most miss about me if I was abducted by Martians.
Okay. So Aliens land on our front lawn. Not a lot of room there, but still… Beannut and I are inside reading board books, and a green arm comes through the front window and snatches me up.
What the heck?
If I know this one, she’d miss….
1. Grapes. No one peals and dices up grapes like I do.
2. Boobs. That pretty much sums it up.
3. Mornings. She comes and knocks on my door looking for boobs.
4. Organic meals. I know, even without me in the room, she’s still turn down that velveeta macaroni and cheese for some organic quinoa!
5. Our rocking chair good night ritual. No one can sing to her like momma.
6. The diversity of our day – from live acoustic guitar, to Whole Foods, to her cousin’s, to a playgroup, the backyard, library, music class, museums, and DVDs at home.
7. My smell. My overall mommyness that can’t be replaced.
8. The way we feed babies together. I consider them my grandbabies. We take good care of them.
9. Organic kale smoothies.
10. Nuzzlin’
I don’t know how the Disney movie ends, but back here in real life, Mommy fights off those evil aliens and makes it home in time for dinner and an organic kale smoothie!
