Sometimes I find it very hard to remember the positive things. I've been told this once or twice in my lifetime ...
So when a positive mom moment occurs, I will now write them down. I'd like to remember the good things too.
...Today, after a fairly nice conversation about address books and piano scales, my mom told me that she loves me. She also said that she's sorry for telling me three weeks ago that she would rather hear an "i love you" from a man. She likes hearing me say it too.
Even though I already know that this is true, it is nice to hear it. My mom used to send me Valentines day cards, and candy hearts or chocolate and I don't think that I stopped to appreciate them. Now she has been too sick to organize herself to send me birthday cards, or valentines candy, and I have found myself really missing it, as cheesy as they may have been. So when a moment like "i love you" comes around, I should stop and appreciate it.
