I lost my mom when I was 8, so I like hearing awesome good memories that people have about their mothers on Mother's Day.
Going to disneyworld with her last year was the best day of my life, it made me forget all of the bad things for a day it was really nice
Omg foxxy I have no stories of my mom cause she left me when i was 2 then i saw her again in wen i was 11, missed the childwood memories part.
my grandma and papa adopted me and my little sister when i was 2. I did get to see my mom some so ill share a memory of both. i think i was about 12 years old and my grandma took me and my mama to tn. my mom and i got to ride the worlds largest bungie coaster. I think thats the happiest ive ever seen her. I have so many great memories with my grandma its hard to choose just one. I guess time spent together watching our favorite tv show Days Of Our Lives. I can remember being very young and having grandma time. Grandma time was where id sit in her lap with a bag of popcorn and watch days of our lives. I didnt get to watch it after i got of school age. Anyway long story short everyday (even now) at 2pm my grandma calls so we can rant about what happened and wht we want to happen. Sorry if i bored you all
Love this thread. Nice stories here. I always loved cooking with my mom. Wish she was still around to cook with.
Warning! It's long. You can skip it if you like. Usually my mom and I don't get along because our personalities clash and all she does is lecture me. She's a usually inconsiderate, practical kinda person (she doesn't take people's feelings into consideration a lot) and is all about saving money so I grew up being used to that. I didn't understand what it was to really have your mom's love the way a lot of people I knew did and I didn't expect much from her. In fact, I avoid her a lot in case another lecture was there for me. One day, in my teens, we were out traveling in China and my dad basically threw a huge fit and it was really embarrassing and I was just very upset and she knew this. While we were looking around the stalls I was looking at this turtle figurine which I liked. (Turtles are adorable) And she asked me if I wanted it. It was a huge thing for me because she'd never really get me something JUST coz I wanted it. I still have that turtle with me. And little things like her reading me a book when I was little. My older siblings never had that. She's now 62 and I realize she doesn't have that much time anymore. It's a crucial stage. So I try to appreciate what we still have. We have our bad days still but I do remember the little things which keep me going. Treasure your moms, whatever shape or form they may be.
Agreed. Love your mother no matter what. In my story, although my mother doesn't behave like most mothers I know, she is my best friend, my personal trainer and stylist, nutritionist, and everything I need. When mother acts like a kid, which she does most of the time, she's like my younger sister. By acting like a kid I mean in a funny way. She once asked me if I could get her a pony because she dreamt of having a pony. I scold my mother more than she scolds me because she would wear short skirts and dresses, eat candy sprinkles late at night, party harder than I do?? and other kiddie and teen stuff. My mother would ask my permission, instead of father's and my older bro's, before she'd purchase anything expensive. She also comes to me whenever she has some SERIOUS relationship issues with father like "Ryan, your father said I gained weight. He hurt my pride."... "Ryan, your father is a bad person! He won't let me go out with my girls!"... "Ryan, do you think he still loves me? He didn't fix my side of bed this morning." And more. She could be really annoying, like calling me at 6am, which is my sleeping time, just to ask me what I'm doing. She's giggle and hang up. That kind of annoying. When I was younger, I used to compare my mother with other kids' mothers. Their mothers prepared their lunch boxes, fixed their uniforms, and other motherly stuff... while I had to prepare my mother's lunchbox and choose clothes for her to wear to work and other motherly stuff. But despite the oddness, I can't imagine having someone else as a mother. My mother is simply amazing.
One of the memorys I have,Is when I was at football practice and mom kicked thw ball really hard and It smashed into my face. We just ended up laughing on the ground, while I had blood pouring out my nose. It may seem stupid but this was one of the best memorys I have because we have drifted apart, even though I still live at home (I'm under 20 btw) we cant go a day without yelling at each other. -Panda
