Our moms are superheroes. The more I grow, the more I want to spend time with my mom. Very beautiful piece of writing by the way. You inspire me to write an article about my mom too (even though it's a little bit late from Mother's Day)

Thank you so much Alyssa! I don’t think I’ll ever be too old to need my mum. I’m actually in the UK so this post wasn’t intended to be Mother’s Day related, so I say go for it! 🫶

I loved this -- as a new mom, I wonder so much about what the teenage years will be like, while at the same time remembering mine. Our relationships with our mothers are so complicated and important. (Just hit subscribe, too. Excited to read more of your writing!)

Thank you so much Courtney and thanks for subscribing too! You're totally right, relationships with mothers are so complicated. I've loved growing up and getting to know my mum as a person rather than just 'mom' - she really is one of my best friends now.

If you do want kids then better to do it whilst you're young and not in your 30's when your body just falls apart and you break your back just getting out of bed LOL.
