My Mother
I've been meaning to devote a post to my mum for a while now. Sometimes she pisses me off, as all mothers do at one time or another, but on the whole she is a really great person. Her name is Margaret.
Mum is a grandmother four times over now, a boy by one son (the middle child), and two girls and a boy by the other son (the oldest child). I haven't got kids yet, but I'm sure I will someday. I'm the third and last of the bunch, born seven years after one brother and ten years after the other.
Mum can be nervous at times, but she has spunk and courage. She got her ears pierced for her birthday this year! That's pretty cool. Mum is always there to when you need it, although sometimes she offers when it's really my responsibilty. I know my house is usually messy, but she sometimes goes to clean it even when she didn't contribute to the mess in any way. Kind of nice in one aspect, but I mostly tell her no, because it's my house and my responsbility. I guess it's part of being a mother.
When I'm upset, I know I can always call her and sit on the phone listening to her voice until I feel better. Margaret is always there for other people when they need her, and is good at advice for seeing how other people's shoes feel. Having her as a guiding light growing up has helped me see the world from other people's eyes, not just my own.
I'm not really sure where I'm going with this. Mainly I just want to express how much my mum means to me and how I think overall she's a spunky lady.
Hey Mum, I love you.
