I have the best mom in the world. I mean, after reading a billion facebook statuses (stati?) claiming the same thing, I know not everyone would agree, so I'll just cut the debate and say I have the best mom in the world for ME.
My mom has always been my best friend and she's always been the first person I call when I have great news or got myself into trouble or just want to talk to someone. Of course I've gotten snappy with my mom on occasion (and vice versa) but for the most part, I've always gotten along with mom. I never understood how my friends could get in such fights with their mothers when I was growing up, but in retrospect, I think I understand why we have always been so close. When I was about 10 or 11, I almost lost my mom to heart disease. After those hard few years, I've always been very appreciative of the time I have with my mom. I've been so lucky to have her here as I've grown up, and I hope she's around for a lot longer.
I'm getting to the part in my life where I really have to start evaluating where I want to go. A lot of my friends talk about wanting to start families. I'm not really sure what I want. I'm sure if I met the right guy at the right time, I would love to be a mom. And I really want to give my mom a chance to be a grandmother, because I know she would be the best grandmother on earth!
Mom is one of the most loving and caring people I've ever met. She's always been a second mom to my friends that need a little extra love and support. From saving my friends whose parents are dieting and keeping junkfood out of the house to saving my friends going through tough personal problems they don't feel like they can tell their own parents about to being a mom to my friends in college that have been away from home for a while, my mom has never only had one child. I can only hope to one day be a woman half as incredible as she is.
Love you, mom!
