Last Night I learned about me...
I now know what I miss the most when I go away to school. I miss my mom. She and I stayed up late last night talking about my future, where I was headed, and the person I am now. She is the most amazing woman ever. I can go to her with anything, good or bad, and she will never judge me. My mother will always be my biggest fan, and without her, I don't think I would be as happy as I am right now. I talked to her a lot about my plans to change schools. She supported. I talked to her about my relationship with Derek. She listened. I cried to her about how I am so happy that I have somehow found out who I am, and what I want to be. She smiled and cried too. No matter what endeavor I'm taking on, she supports me 100%, even when she thinks I may not be successful at it.
I remember back in high school she and I fought a lot. Mostly about how I was trying to throw my life away on some idiot who wanted me to never go to college and just wanted me pretty much as his maid. I wish I had listenend to her sooner, if I had, High school would have been much less painful for me. The worst part of us fighting was she was the only person I could go to. I couldn't admit to any friends that I was allowing myself to give up on everything I wanted. My mother waited out my childish bantering, and once I was done, we were best friends. My mother has become one of the biggest parts of my life, I would die without her.
Earlier this year, we had a scare that my mother might have breast cancer. The only thoughts I had were,"please don't let her die. I need her." When I thought i might lose her, it was awful. She and I had finally become the best of friends. Thankfully, everything cleared up fine, and my mom is as healthy and wonderful as ever.
Today is this wonderful lady's birthday, and although she doesn't want to count the years, I've had 18 of them with her. For 18 years she has always saved me when I needed saving, and let me fight my own battles when necessary. She is the most passionate, wonderful person in the entire world. I love my mom, for all she is, and all that she has made me. She's my hero. The End.
