mothers are boss.

i love my mum. 

what would i do without her? actually, my heart kind of stops when i think about it. i don't think i could ever deal with losing this woman.

she's the kind of woman who listens, really listens. she would listen to me telling her my problems, sitting at the bench, helping her peel the potatoes or making a cup of tea. for that, i thank her.

she's incredibly honest, and it's the kind of honesty i wish i had. i can definitely learn that from her.

she's giving, she's lovely to anyone and everyone. everyone adores my mum. 

when i went to university, she cried all the way home. i suppose it's hard, having your last child leave the nest, as they say. it was hard for me too. i do miss her comfort, her arms, her hugs, her words of wisdom. 

but the thing is, i know she'll always be there for me. 

it doesn't matter how far i am. 

you rule, lynnette (two n's, two t's) christine! please forgive me for getting you a mother's day card that was actually a birthday card.
