I LOVE MY MOMMY!!! she sent me a card and a pillow for my birthday. the pillow says "A DAUGHTER IS A LITTLE GIRL WHO GROWS UP TO BE A WONDERFUL FRIEND" and the card is really long.
the card says:
(outside)
For My Daughter
I'm so proud of you
(inside)
I wish I could describe to you exactly how it feels having a grown daughter like you. Sometimes when I look at the independent woman you've become, it's hard to believe you were the little girl who used to jump rope and play with dolls. When I see you doing things I might not have done at your age, I wonder how "my baby" grew up to be this remarkable person.
And sometimes I'm afraid you might not need me as much as you used to. But then you'll throw your arms around me, or call me up for advice, and I'll realize the bond between us will always ben the same. I love you, and I want to tell the whole world, "That's my daughter. She's made me proud."
isn't that just...the sweetest card?! and...wow. i don't think there could be a better one out there for my mom and i. i mean...not the "i'm so proud of you" "you're such a wonderful person" stuff, but the throwing my arms around her, calling her before i make any decisions, wanting the whole world to know she's MY mom, etc.
i know i went on my soapbox about my relationship with my mom on HER birthday so i'm not going to do it again for mine, but...she's the greatest! and i really do wish everyone had someone like my mom to relate to/depend on/cry to.
