What Kind of a Mother am I?
There’s a new little quiz on Facebook, “What kind of mother are you?” I haven’t taken it yet. I know what kind of a mother I am.
- I’m the kind of mother who flips through Facebook while my kids are screaming for macaroni and cheese.
- I’m the kind of mother who can’t sleep all night because the upstairs air conditioner broke and it’s 89 degrees up there where the kids are sleeping, and it’s 79 degrees down here where I’m sleeping, and I can’t decide if I should wake them up and bring them down here to sleep on the floor or leave them to their sweaty but peaceful slumber.
- I’m the kind of mother who will spend $2.50 on a school notebook with a Corvette on the cover when a 90 cent plain black notebook would work just as well.
- I’m the kind of mother who sometimes slips out of the house early in the morning without kissing everyone goodbye, but they think I kiss them everyday in their sleep, anyway.

Oh, just leave them to their peaceful slumber! Kids are much more accommodating to climate than we are. They’ll be okay. They’ll also be okay if you don’t kiss them good-bye every day. What counts more is that you have interesting conversations with them, at least judging by the “You smell, I smell” post!
