Measuring by Pie

Mother’s Day is always a little bittersweet for me, but this year, it was a laugh riot! The Pie’s teacher at Preschool arranged an interview with her students about their mothers that would ultimately be used for a Mother’s Day card. The card and a lovely little flowerpot were bestowed upon me to celebrate me giving birth to the greatest child on earth…but the card trumped all previous gifts and following are the details revealed about me:



WHAT IS YOUR MOTHER’S NAME? “Jackie”


WHAT DO YOU CALL HER? “Mama”


HOW OLD IS SHE? “30” (I love my daughter!)


HOW TALL IS SHE? “8 feet”


HOW MUCH DOES SHE WEIGH? “267 pounds” (ok…NOT loving my daughter so much now. This is her favorite number and by NO means my current weight!)


WHAT COLOR IS HER HAIR? “brown”


WHAT IS THE PRETTIEST THING ABOUT YOUR MOTHER? “her eyes…they look like mine!”


WHAT DOES SHE DO DURING THE DAY? “she goes shopping and reads magazines”


WHAT IS HER FAVORITE TV SHOW? “grown-up shows”


WHAT IS HER FAVORITE DRINK & SNACK? “Dr. Pepper and anything she wants”


WHAT DOES SHE COOK? “pancakes and McDonalds”


WHAT DOES SHE LIKE TO DO FOR FUN? "do grown-up stuff and go on dates”


WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING TO DO WITH YOUR MOTHER? “play”


WHAT IS HER FAVORITE THING TO DO WITH YOU? “snuggle” (love her again!)


WHERE DO YOU LIKE TO GO WITH YOUR MOTHER? “Wal Mart”


WHAT IS THE ONE THING SHE SAYS TO YOU MOST OFTEN? “no” (not true!)


HOW WILL YOU CELEBRATE MOTHER’S DAY? “eating and drinking and playing”


WHAT DOES YOUR MOTHER WANT FOR MOTHER’S DAY? “her butt to stop hurting”


Some answers were pretty accurate, but others were simply ridiculous or too revealing. Especially the last one! I do occasionally express that I have a pain in my ass, but this particular pain is a result of surgery and its complications. It’s nice to know she pays attention, at least!
