I told her if a guy just sweeps you outside and did not have to give regards to your parents, he will not respect you. Rigid yes but that's how i was brought up. A guy likes you, you have him come to your folks to ask for permission to see you.
I was talking at her then she yelled at me like she suddenly snapped.
"Enough with your standards! you wanna know why I don't introduce you?"
Yeah please enlighten me.
She hands me a mirror.
"If i see one more time another boy I like saying my mom is hot with matching dropped jaws, I'll scream to death."

My daughter is 19 and only had three boyfriends. I think I've done enough damage and no she's not not hot. She just likes home and yes, she loves me. despite all the room trashings and what nots. I know she loves me. Someone is sure to cry when I croak.
after 9th grade graduation of my daughter,
I took this shot of myself on the mall with my cellphone internalizing on the fact that
"Tomorrow I'm a mom of a high school student."
and it shook my soul more than anything.
I know I know I should be taking new pics of myself what with the new Cam shutter remote. I was just looking for something and found this. I have new ones but they are boring, not postworthy.
it was a moment and I believe it that, more than what we had or how grand or not everything are, our lives are defined by moments...when you were actually there for it.
'got a lot of those.
