My mom is the best…no really

 

These ladies are the reason, for better or worse, I’m the mom I am.  But, my mom is the best. 

She was always there to nag us when we needed to do something that made us better humans. She was there for us to lean on when our lives were falling apart.  She was the person who single handedly taught us financial frugality and that even if we had the money for something doesn’t mean we needed the item. She set expectations and boundaries and we learned to to exceed them when we wanted something. She said no and wasn’t our best friend so we learned what life was really about and as adults is now there in a best friend capacity. She made my childhood fun as we learned fun was coloring on rocks and playing tag in the dark and rolling down the hill and made adulthood better as she is still teaching us and there for us when we need it and steps back when we need it. She always knows.  Not that we always agree.  We’re still her kids and follow our own paths but we know she’s there.   

Best mom ever!  We are lucky adults.
