Sharing Mother’s Day with my partner might not seem like the most glamorous arrangement, but honestly, it’s pretty fantastic. My partner is the only person who truly understands that I need a break, just like she does. Our brilliant plan? Escape the house together! We indulge in brunch, hit the shops, and grant each other the freedom to be lazy without making any decisions. It’s a win-win!
While some husbands might find themselves aimlessly roaming the aisles of a store like Target the day before Mother’s Day, ending up with a generic card declaring, “You’re the best, Mom!” and some stale Easter candy, my partner knows me better. She pays attention to the little things and can hunt down that elusive pair of shoes I’ve been searching for over the last four months—in my actual size. And she doesn’t just stop at one pair; she gets me two! Who else would do that but another woman?
In recent years, my monthly cycle has decided to sync up with Mother’s Day, unfortunately. Thankfully, who better to empathize with my discomfort than my wonderful partner? I’m lucky to have her there, rubbing my back while I battle cramps and indulging my cravings for salty snacks without any judgment. It turns what could have been a miserable day into something bearable.
For our child, having two moms is the best thing ever, and I can’t help but agree. Sharing Mother’s Day with my partner is genuinely special. It gives me the chance to express my gratitude for everything she does to keep our family running (mostly) smoothly. And in return, she does the same for me.
