That’s what I always have been to my mom.
The independent child.
The one who wanted to do things on her own. Her own way. Make her own path.
Was constantly hurt, but overly determined to be good at things.
My weekend plans were all canceled due to weather. So I threw my kiddo into the car and drove a couple hours to surprise her. I like to do that every now and again. I got to spend the whole day with her and my little man (and of course my dad) A relaxing day, I got to eat, and I got to nap. I got treated to coffee and hot tamales for breakfast (the breakfast of champions in my opinion!) and I got to drive across the green, rain soaked plains. I love to do that this time of year.
I went through a random question list with my mom. When I asked her what about me was most like her….. her answer “stubbornness.”
Imagine that. Me? Stubborn? Never…..
It was a lovely day. I’m so glad we went.
Happy mother’s day mom. Love you.
