Today I must wish a Happy Birthday to my most favorite Aquarius: my dear, sweet mother. For thirty years she has been my friend, my confidant, my biggest supporter.
There are no ulterior motives when it comes to my mother's kind of love. She laughs when I call her selfless, and yet the love she's given me has been a constant; uncomplicated and straightforward in the rarest, purest of ways. Her advice and council come with no hidden agenda. It's quite simple, really - she wants me to be happy.
When I am at my most horrid and unlovable, she is there. Be I jubilant, heartbroken, terrified or livid, one thing remains the same: I want to call my mother. I know at times I'm a giant, maddening pain in the ass. I also know I've probably always needed her a little too much. My attachment is such that I suspect she almost feared for me a little, which may be why we decided years ago that no matter where the two of us were, we would always be connected.
Don't ask me why I'm so fiercely loyal to my funny, ridiculously hard-working, beautiful mother. Because I could honestly go on all day.
Love you, Mommy. Always and forever. xoxo
thank you, my darling face, I love you - always and forever - God Bless....mommy
