Some parents have the joy of having more then one little devil er i mean amazing blessing they call children and some are lucky enough or rather are blessed with simply one. The 'more than one child' parent loves their children just as much as the 'i have an only child' parent does, but the 'only child' parent becomes slightly more attatched. As the kids grow up the momma starts preparing herself for her baby-being a boy or girl-to start distancing themselves from them, liking members of the opposite sex, hanging out with friends, rebelling slightly, dating members of the opposite sex, finishing highschool and going to college but they are never really ready for it.
Washington Irving once said "A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsles to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts" this is all true...mothers are there for us when no one else is, and how do we repay her? We grow up and leave her home, the nest the safe place and roost that she so happily and passionately betowed on us. But! No matter how far we go we will never stop loving our mothers, ever...even if they don't believe us. Always will we love them.
Some mothers, those of only children become used to having their child be very close to them, telling them almost everything and trusting them with our most secret thoughts. Our gossip and hurt and love and passion and pain, we trust them with it all and one day out of the blue we change, they don't, we do. We don't tell them everything anymore, I (from personal expericence) and not sure why but we do, and we grow away from them faster then either of us expected but us? We're just growing up, them? Well they feel like we are leaving them behind and forgetting about them. But never, and i say never will we ever be able to forget you, we have a special bond as Mother and Child (in my case Mother and Daughter) we could never forget you ever, even if we wanted to, you may think we are growing up and leaving you never to turn back and never to care again but we see, we see that if pains you that we don't tell you everything and we see that you think we are leaving you behind and living this extraordinary life without our mothers but that is so beyond far from the truth. we will love you and we always think about you. In the back of our minds but in the front of our hearts is "I wonder what momma would think now?"
And do something special tell your momma you love her on a daily basis and tell her just for kicks and giggles, repeat yourself a million times, you may htink it bothers her but trust me, it doesn't she loves hearing those words and say it until she says it back even if she pretends like she doesn't want to hear it anymore, every time you say it, it makes her heart swell. Hug her lots and hang all over her and just breath in the scent of your momma and tell her there is no one else like her, sit with her and gossip or sit with her and just be. But most important tell her you will never forget her and tell her:
