So I ask the Mother of my children what she might like for lunch on this Mothers Day, and she says “Five Guys”.
Not that surprising, as the chain of burgers and fries is a family favorite. But today? I ask if there might not be some other place she would prefer for lunch.
She says no, so Five Guys it is.
While just the two of us are eating, the woman who brought my two daughters into the world says that we need to order lunch to go for Maddie, the younger daughter, because she is at work and “starving”.
How does Mom know this? Because the daughter sent her text about an hour ago and asked if she could be brought some Five Guys for lunch. Because she was “starving”, naturally.
Thus, Mom wanted Five Guys for lunch. Of course.
Because that is what means to be Mom. Even on Mother’s Day.
