It took roughly 17 years

for mommy and I to properly bond.

Not to say I didn't love my mother before, but in recent months I have never been so grateful for her, admired her so much, missed her, and loved her so much!

In these last few years I have seen my mother grow and mature. Hahaha.. no really!
I've seen her become more proficient in english. I have seen her grip through challenges and become a happier and more optimistic person. I think she became more beautiful too!

In the last year she has perplexed me with how reasonable, lenient and understanding she has become with "teenage privileges" (I guess you can call it that). She has been extra super caring and loving- taking care of all the household chores to allow me to focus on school and making sure I'm well fed and what not.

She actually publicly professed her love to her daughter, me! (As you can make the connection, she doesn't normally do that) and now I can't suppress how much I looooooveee my mommy (so I wrote this post)!!

I didn't see my mom for roughly 24 hours and I actually MISSED HER SOO MUCH! Last night I got home, got ready for the CAC banquet and left before she got home. By the time I got home last night she was already asleep. This morning she already left for work again before I woke up. While I was studying I stopped for a second and realized how long I haven't seen my mother (yes, I have been away from home for trips and what not before). I told wl that, "I bet if I told her I didn't see her for 24 hours and missed her she would respond with, "Well, what's going to happen when you go away for school in the fall?" When I saw her this evening the first thing I told her was that I missed her and she instantly responded with what I predicted she would say.

Ah, I'm so happy with our daughter-mother relationship now. (Knock on wood) Personally, I think we have come a long way. :) !!
