Once a daughter, always a daughter.
Remember back in the ’80s when you would ride your bike around town and Mom wouldn’t worry? You’d probably raid your family’s junk drawer — stuffed to the gills — to find change for the ice cream truck you could hear a block away, some creepy carnival music booming from it. I loved the ScrewBall. The one with the bubble gum at the bottom. Oh yeah, those were the days.
I taught Mom to page me “911” when it was important for me to call home, which meant it was an emergency. One would think that would make a 16-year-old jump to find a phone to check in, but that drive-in movie was WAY too good and that boy was WAY too cute. Needless to say, when I finally rolled in at 3 a.m. and Mom was sitting up waiting, she was PISSED.
Now I’m in my 40s and my children are growing too fast and Mom is getting older, but I have to admit, I still check in with her. Because — even though I don’t feel like it most days — I’m someone’s little girl. Her baby. Even in my 40s, Mom still worries about me. Because time has passed and I’ve become my own adult and have my own little people, but Mom is still my mom. She’s still mothering. Once a mother always a mother, she said.
