Deals with Motherhood. This collection honours the woman who gave up her own sense of self-worth for a life of mindless drudgery, day in and day out, all for you. The woman who sticks around when everyone else in your life turns away. Who insists 'Don't worry about me, I'm fine. All I need is to know that you're happy'.

Motherhood is a popular topic on "A Prairie Home Companion", and not just on Mother's Day. It's about time someone gathered the best bits into an homage to mum. This funny, affectionate, poignant collection honours the woman who gave up her own sense of self-worth for a life of mindless drudgery, day in and day out, all for you. The woman who sticks around when everyone else in your life turns away. Who insists 'Don't worry about me, I'm fine. All I need is to know that you're happy'. Who doesn't leave messages because motherhood is not about messages, it's about love. Share it with your mom or give it to a mom you know. If you're a mom yourself, hand it to your child and say 'Listen'. It's the least he or she can do.
