The Week in Which You Should Probably Call Mom

or I Showed My Kids How to Make Mimosas for Mommy This Morning

Uh-oh. Did you forget that today is MOTHER’S DAY?!

Give Mom (or any of the Moms in your life) the gift of rhyme this year and appease the ghost of birthday boy Edward Lear with any one of these poems inspired by the five pillars of the holiday:

GRATITUDE

SIBLING RIVALRY

CANNIBALISM

FEAR

HONESTY
