Why God Made Moms
This is where we Celebrate Mom all
year round. It consists of four pages:
Why God Made Moms
submitted by Debbie Okubo
from Special Features, May 2008
Kids say the darndest things, as Art Linkletter and Bill
Cosby would say--Debbie received this humorous Mother's Day
questionnaire via email. These were answers given by second grade
school children to the following questions:
Why did God make mothers?
- She's the only one who knows where the scotch tape is.
- Mostly to clean the house.
- To help us out of there when we were being born.
How did God make mothers?
- He used dirt, just like the rest of us.
- Magic plus super powers and a lot of string.
- God made my mom just the same like He made me. He
just used bigger parts.
What ingredients are mothers made of?
- God makes mothers out of clouds and angel hair and
everything nice in the world and one dab of mean.
- They had to get their start from men's bones. Then
they mostly use string, I think.
Why did God give you your mother and not some
other mom?
- We're related.
- God knew she likes me a lot more than other people's
moms like me.
What kind of little girl was your mom?
- My mom has always been my mom and none of that other
stuff.
- I don't know because I wasn't there, but my guess
would be pretty bossy.
- They say she used to be nice.
What did Mom need to know about Dad before she
married him?
- His last name.
- She had to know his background. Like is he a crook?
Does he get drunk on beer?
- Does he make at least $800 a year? Did he say NO to
drugs and YES to chores?
Why did your mom marry your dad?
- My dad makes the best spaghetti in the world. And my
mom eats a lot.
- She got too old to do anything else with him.
- My grandma says that Mom didn't have her thinking cap
on.
Who's the boss at your house?
- Mom doesn't want to be boss, but she has to be
because Dad's such a goofball.
- Mom. You can tell by room inspection. She sees the
stuff under the bed.
- I guess Mom is, but only because she has a lot more
to do than Dad.
What's the difference between moms and dads?
- Moms work at work and work at home and dads just go
to work at work.
- Moms know how to talk to teachers without scaring
them.
- Dads are taller and stronger, but moms have the real
power 'cause that's who you got to ask if you want to sleep over at
your friend's.
- Moms have magic; they make you feel better without
medicine.
What does your mom do in her spare time?
- Mothers don't do spare time.
- To hear her tell it, she pays bills all day long.
What would it take to make your mom perfect?
- On the inside she's already perfect. Outside, I think
some kind of plastic surgery.
- Diet. You know--her hair. I'd diet, maybe blue.
If you could change one thing about your mom,
what would it be?
- She has this weird thing about me keeping my room
clean. I'd get ride of that.
- I'd make my mom smarter. Then she would know it was
my sister who did it and not me.
- I would like for her to get rid of those invisible
eyes on the back of her head.
