What This Mom Blogger Really Wants for Mother’s Day

Sharing is caring!

Ah Mother’s Day… the one day of the year that mom is supposed to take off and enjoy. Except, not so much. Yes, I would love to tell you that Mother’s Day means a day of relaxation or doing something that I really want to do. But in reality, it’s not and I’m perfectly okay with that. I always say that I just want some time to myself for Mother’s Day.

But that’s a lie.

My kids, after all, are the reason I celebrate Mother’s Day.

Not that I don’t honor and appreciate my own mom- I do. But I’d rather show that 365 than just one day of the year. Sure, I made her handmade gifts and bought her cards. But now that I’m a mom, I understand what it’s about. To that extent, I would say that I don’t want anything for Mother’s Day.

And as a mom who also happens to be a blogger, and maybe there are some things that I wouldn’t mind getting.

Let’s be real here. I’m a blogger. And as bloggers, we chase pageviews, we chase social media followers, we chase money. It’s a seemingly endless game of chase. And I enjoy it… most of the time.

Some days I’d rather not chase and just get back to basics. It’s also on those days that I remember why I started blogging and I remember how much I truly do enjoy blogging.

It’s also on those days that I start daydreaming about my blogging empire and what I’d like to see it become.

A check to Google Analytics brings me back to reality quite fast and then it’s back to the drawing board to figure out a new scheme for post promotion so I can get back on the blogging hamster wheel and chase.

So what do I, as a mom who blogs, really want for Mother’s Day?

• Simplified traffic methods
• Endless bank account to fund the numerous courses and eBooks so I can set the foundation for my blogging empire
• a blog redesign

But what will I probably get instead?

Well, with T&J, I might get a plant. And that’s awesome. Because as their unofficial step-mom, they really don’t have to get me anything. Sure, I’m in their lives and I love them. But they aren’t my kids and I’m not their mom.

With Squeaker.. I’m almost on my own there. I don’t expect for Kyle to buy me a Mother’s Day card or a gift and say that it’s from the toddler. I’m okay with doing a Mommy and Me craft instead. In fact, I’d rather go that route because it’s also creating memories.

Even if I don’t get any of that for Mother’s Day or do a Mommy and Me craft; I’ll still be happy.

What else would I really like for Mother’s Day?

Spending time with my family. Sitting outside, blowing bubbles.

Maybe indulging a little with some Butter Chardonnay by JaM Cellars

Oh yes. Butter Chardonnay.

This wine melts in your mouth. It’s 100% Chardonnay, grown in sunny California spots with just the right touch of cool from the coast. JaM Cellars uses great winemaking traditions to make easy-to-love, everyday California and Napa Valley wines. “JaM” is actually short for John and Michele, second-generation vintners who own and run JaM Cellars. They have a passion and gift for making exceptional quality wines that everyone can enjoy. Made in the tradition of Californian winemaking, the fruit has juicy, ripe, stone fruit and baked-lemon aromas.  Cold fermented to the perfect, rich creaminess and aged in our own blend of oak, gives this wine a lovely, long, vanilla finish that’s uniquely Butter!

Find Butter Chardonnay at your local grocery store with the JaM Cellars WineFinder:  http://www.jamcellars.com/Find-Us

And then maybe after I enjoy a glass (or two) of this easy to love, creamy Butter Chardonnay; I’ll work on my blog.
