Don’t forget to call your mother!

You know what I just did that I haven’t done in WAY too long???  I realized that my mother sees me the same way I see my daughters!  The bond between mother and daughter is intense and it’s crazy how it flips from one perspective to the other–first from the perspective of a daughter and then from the perspective of a mother of a daughter.  It’s breathtaking to realize that the immeasurable love you feel for your child, is how your mother felt about you.  Damn!  If only we knew how much our mothers loved us and went crazy over us, and thought about us, and felt our every moment with us!  It makes me feel like such an asshole for ever hating my mother.  It makes me dread the day my daughter first hates me.  It makes me want to call my mother and thank her for her awesomeness and love.  I will do that.  What about you?
