EUGENE, OR — Local dad Kyle Hendershot will celebrate Mother’s Day tomorrow with a heartfelt gesture that begins with waffles and ends with walls shaking.
“I just want to show my appreciation,” says Kyle, who reportedly plans to wake his wife Melissa with flowers, coffee, and “a very deliberate eyebrow raise.” After a family breakfast at the local diner, Kyle will discreetly suggest they take “the scenic route home,” which Melissa is expected to interpret as: ditch the kids at Grandma’s and brace yourself.
Sources predict that after 11 years of marriage and three kids, the couple will once again seize intimate moments like a SWAT team—fast, focused, and with noise discipline.
“She’ll get to order the cinnamon roll French toast, and then when we get back home—how do I put this politely?” Kyle says. “Let’s just say she’ll be getting multiple servings.”
Melissa, likely to be seen in a bathrobe and post-glow smirk, will reportedly call the gesture “thoughtful, romantic, and a cardio workout better than anything I’ve done since that one Zumba class in 2019.”
The couple is expected to resume normal parenting duties 47 minutes later—refreshed, fulfilled, and mutually unwilling to make eye contact with the neighbors who may or may not hear everything.
