No matter how old you are...

sometimes you still need your mother! I started off the day by ordering Cindy flowers for her birthday, then zipped down the road to my mom's. Mama had the day off today so we did a little power shopping! We took Harbison Blvd. by storm!! We managed to find a lot of good deals as we shopped for fabric, shoes, purses and clothes! We had a huge lunch at Wild Wing and went home exhausted. I'm so glad that my mother is my friend!! It's nice that she doesn't have to "raise" me anymore and we can laugh and shop and talk.
To top it all off, when I got home my friend Rebecca came over and brought me a luscious cinnamon toast candle and butterscotch hot chocolate. GIRL! You know me so well! Nothing like true friends to boost your self-esteem and pick up your spirits.

So very true...my parents still introduce me as "the baby girl" and I LOVE IT - especially now that I'm older (well, we won't say how much older! Ha!)

This makes me miss my Mama. Me glad your Mama lives close.

Sounds like a great day! By the way, where do you get all of your cute fabric--especially the toile?

You have made me homesick already! I guess thats why we do need friends and friendships. Sometimes they are the things that carry us through! Have a fantastic day.

You're exactly right! Doesn't it feel good to just be friends with your mom instead of an enemy in the teenage years!!

I love the relationship of Moms and Daughters when you get to this stage! My daughters and I have a great time together! I remember when they were teenagers and knew everything and I was ignorant! This new phase is so much nicer!
