I love both of my parents dearly but I would say my relationship with my mom is better. I guess I’m a mamas girl!!. We love to laugh and play and act silly all the time. I think I inherited the goofy gene from her because we both act crazy silly all the time. On the other hand she gives me great advice and she is very understanding. Like when I’m sad and don’t know what to do she would come to my rescue and make me feel better. Sometimes when I make bad choices she would confront me and talk about to me in an understanding way and say we all make mistakes, just don’t let it happen again. She feels my pain and can relate when something is wrong with me and tells me what I need to here. She is very blunt and does not sugar coat everything.
Sometimes we have our disagreements and fight and the whole house is at a standstill because we are very firm about what we think is right so it’s like fire fighting fire. But usually we come to a agreement and put the situation behind us and move on. We have no other choice but to forgive and forget and go back to being the best of friends.
Sometime I think my sisters are jealous of the relationship with my mother and I because they can’t talk to her like I can. They bond in a different way than my mother and I do.
Sarah’s mother died but from what I’ve read she had a very close relationship with her and was very devastated when she passed away. She had no relationship with her dad at first and they did not connect at all. She did try once to connect with him and she found way to by sharing similar interest and found that they were very much alike. She explained in the book that her sister was closer to her dad than she was and it bothered. Sarah and her dad argued a lot and didn’t agree with him very much. So she was relieved when they started to get along. Its better when you get along with your parents.
Nice job on this post, Amani. :)
