In a lighthearted segment, host Tom Richards gives moms a chance to voice their real Mother’s Day desires. Let’s be honest, when it comes to gift-giving, kids have it easy. The phrase “it’s the thought that counts” perfectly captures the essence of these gifts, which often lack any real effort. After all, what can you expect from little ones who don’t even have jobs? Even if they do manage to scrape together a few bucks, it’s just our money they’re handing back—definitely not a heartfelt gift.
Crafting something unique? That’s a stretch for most kids, and let’s face it, it’s not the 1970s anymore. Mom probably doesn’t need another macramé creation. Yet, regardless of how impractical or downright bizarre the kids’ gifts may be, moms will cherish them. Have you checked your fridge? It’s likely a gallery of “art” that even Picasso might struggle to interpret. But that’s the beauty of motherhood—those creations are lovingly displayed simply because they were made with love.
However, when it comes to sharing their thoughts with Tom, the moms get candid. In a hilarious video, they poke fun at the not-so-cherished gifts received from their little artists and reveal what they truly want this Mother’s Day: a day of relaxation with friends, complete with a few mimosas. Perhaps a spirited conversation about superheroes is on the agenda too? If that’s what brings joy, I’ll be more than happy to take the kids out of the house.
My partner, Sarah, is one of those moms who genuinely enjoys spending Mother’s Day with our children—at least until the clock strikes ten and she starts daydreaming about a quiet retreat. But the desire for a little adult time, some drinks, and a moment of peace resonates with countless moms out there.
Tom and the moms in the video are humorously critiquing the chaos of Mother’s Day while still appreciating the thought behind the handmade gifts. If our son hands Sarah a lumpy clay bowl, you can bet she’ll sip champagne from it without hesitation. After all, it’s her special day!
