What's on your Mommy wish list?

Most days, I wish for enough sleep so that I can feel like a normal person. Getting a good amount of sleep helps me be a better mom. I'm more refreshed and energetic and actually like playing all those silly kid games that my daughter enjoys.
So, I guess more sleep would have to top my personal Mommy wish list.
Second, I'd love a clean house. When my daughter was
barely walking, I could put her in the baby bouncer, and run around cleaning up. She never made a big mess, so things stayed clean. Those were the days!
Now, I'm lucky if I can get the kitchen floor swept and a few things picked up.
And, once I do get the house cleaned up, my husband goes out of his way to track mud through the kitchen!
Third on my mommy wish list? I wish I had more time to take care of myself. Like most moms, I spend my days thinking of other people, but little time on myself. I would really love a day of beauty and pampering.
And, last, I want to be able to finish my degree, so I can get a very good paying job to support my daughter.
So, what's on your Mommy wish list? More sleep? Better behaved kids? A nicer mother in law? Please share!

I have four children 3 ,5, 14 and 15 Id like all the above sleep, clean house, towels in the laundry hamper etc, I like to get in the car and not drop 7 things at 8 houses. Then pick up on my way back. The phone back, to sleep in my bed with just myself and my hubby sleep nothing else at this stage. Too find my clothes in my wardrobe not my daughters, my hairbrush and to find empty containers in the bin not back in the fridge. Its not much but I have days when I would love these things. Then maybe I could think of doing my hair and wearing something clean.lol

I see that you're further along the Mommy road, than I am. I have just the one child and she's three years old like your youngest. So, I think I'm getting a sneak peek into my life in the next ten years. Thanks for the insight. Next to you, I've got thing pretty nice. Best of luck with all your babies. I'll keep my fingers crossed that your mommy wishes come true.
