I totally agree with the wishes here 🙂 I’m a mum of a toddler and would wish for a weekend alone. Please dad, take the boy with you, visit the grandparents and let me have some undisturbed alone time, a lot of sleep, a good read, time to sew, time to just sit on the couch and watch nonsense on tv. And go out with friends at night! Oh, that would be awsome! 🙂
YES!!! A time for us to recharge our batteries.
I love these ideas! I already picked up a gift for my mom, but I think I’ll be adding a bottle of wine in the gift bag 🙂
OMG! I just love this post. I want all gifts except last two… I am not a wine person and I do not breastfeed anymore. But otherwise, please Santa bring me any from this list… please!
Great ideas! I’m staying with my mother in law for the holidays and I think she’d like some help around the house!
Those are great suggestions. I would like to sleep in for a change…
Sleep is on top of my list for me.
This is a perfect list!!! Absolutely love this and could totally go for a bottle of wine 🙂
Thank you, Danielle!
The full nights sleep.. yes pleaseeee!! Everytime my husband tries to give me one of these days my son ends up sleeping in!! Not fair! haha.
Yes!! Same thing happens to me all the time. I also love the “SSSSHHH mommy needs to sleep,” when he tries to get the boys from the bedroom. LOL
What a great list!! Moms I feel are often over looked with what they really want for Christmas
Yes they do and thank you!
My mother would love the sleep for a day ha!

The free breastfeeding day is funny! But then you’d have to pump it all out beforehand right? A day to go shopping on my own would be nice.
For me would be sleep, quiet for one day, well the list can go on. LOL Thank you for commenting Nicci.
one year, my daughter made me a calendar. Each month had a picture that she made with her children’s hands or feet. I know that it took her some time, but she had construction paper, paint and two small children. Each month, I had a new picture to look at.
