"Mom, you are my Best friend."
I read that on a gift we sell at work everyday, when daughters buy it for their moms that they're so close to.
God i wish more than anything i had that. My heart's honestly broken.
I think back on all the times shes said "i love you Sarah.."
and i cant think of one. It's only said out of habit when we hang up the phone.
And all the times i've locked my bedroom door and cried, all alone. After I got my heart broken, or through some hard times i've had, whether they were my fault or not.....she wasnt there to hug me or hold me like a mom should.
my supervisors and Tony's mom are closer to me than my own. They listen, they hug me....they tell me everythings gonna be allright...we laugh, and we act goofy and talk about eachothers problems..
And i think about when i have my kids...i'll be sure they'll remember the nights when they couldnt sleep, id lay there and fall asleep with them. Even if i wasnt tired...They'll hear "i love you" more than 5,000,000,000 times in their lifetime. I could promise that they'd always know that they could count on me being there for them whether they've gotten a bad grade, or have made a huge mistake. I'll make our own family holidays, so when they grow up...they dont have to say..."i wish i could tell my mom i love her, or even just hug her, without it feeling weird."
I thought of this big plan for mothers day, that would have really meant a lot to a mom...it would've come from the bottom of my heart..but its not the same to give it to someone who wouldnt appreciate it. I wish mothers day actually had meaning between my mom and i. but its just another national holiday, that we have the freedom to or not to celebrate.
