Friends!
A Labor of Love: You find out that you're expecting, the sheer joy and fear come over you with all its force of nature. Take a deep breath and you have 9 months to let it settle and grow and bond. Forever a part of you! My daughter and friend.
We start out being the only one in this relationship that is carrying the whole load, then, alas, we have those years of love and adoration of Mommy and daughter. We grow and laugh together, we learn about each other likes and dislikes. What an awesome adventure. Our love is a love that God has put into our hearts. He chose us to be Mother and daughter. But we have the choice to be friends. And what a wonderful thing to have a daughter as your dearest friend.
Love, Mom
Love, Mom
Oh mom that was so sweet! I feel the same way about you! It was wonderful to be able to have you as my best friends growing up and still today. I may live on the other side of states but are hearts and minds are still close. I am so glad that we are able to share many things together! Love you so very much!!

Ya'll totally made me get a lump in my throat! That is my prayer for Abi and I, that we would have a healthy, loving, respectful relationship now, and that I would be able to let her grow into her own little person and we could be friends as she gets older.
