I feel very lucky to havea mother like mine.  I'm 19 and she's
40, and we both understand that neither of us can be the "perfect"
mother/daughter.  When I was willing to understand about her
reasons for leaving my step-father (like a father to me since age
5), she was willing to understand when I fell in love with a married
man.  Now that I live on my own, I miss our "before-bed" chats when
we'd just BS around about the day's events.  There are very few
secrets between us, and I'm always excited to tell her about my
latest "in-lust" or "in-love" crush (she does the same with me).
My mother has never been anything less than supportive of anything
I've done, and has offered advice when needed.  I could go on for
ever about how much I love my mother, but I'm sure you get the
idea.   As a mother or a friend, she's always there for me and I
hope that when I have a daughter we'll have the same sort of
relationship.
