Mother's Day

As I check out at the supermarket and place my yogurt, fruit and granola into my recyclable bag, the check out boy wishes me a happy mother's day. He asks if I'm a mother, I politely say no. I say Thank God under my breath, and then he asks, "but you will be soon, right?"

No, not if I can help it. Happy Mother's day! For now, I'll just be a grateful auntie who likes her cocktails and her own nap times.
