Differences

My mom had me when she was 32 years old. She was a late bloomer and never thought that she would marry someone. Because of the long age gap we used to argue about a lot of things because she was a little old fashioned. There was one time when she was invited to come to a Parent-Daughter Colloquium when I was about to graduate in high school. This is where we started settling our differences . Up to now we still have differences but we now manage to understand each other through an open communication. How bout you, ever had a little difference between you and your mom? How were you able to settle and get over it?

My mom was 30 when I was born but I was her youngest child so it seemed by the time I was older she was more relaxed than she was with my brothers. We were always really close and did a lot of things together and we loved to go out shopping and to get something to eat together and she would always take my friends along with us. We did have our disagreements but we always got over them in no time at all. She was the person I looked up to most in my life so when she past away it was really hard on me and there are so many things that I wished I would of told her or stories I know she told me a thousand times that I hated hearing that I wish so much that I could remember them now. I never can remember I time that I really had a problem telling my mom anything or asking for her help. I also remember a few times that we did but heads but she was always just trying to look out for me.

I'm sorry to hear that. I lost my father too nearly 3 years now but what I am really afraid of is losing my mom especially now that I just had a baby and she is now 5 months. I really love seeing my mom playing with my daughter. She loves her so much and I can't imagine losing them both. Thanks for responding and good luck to you.
