I am so lucky to have been able to grow up in such a wonderful town. Other people in the U. Sometimes we have trouble seeing things that are right in front of us, but sometimes things are hiding and only our mom can seem to find them. She somehow remembers where everything gets placed, and everyone in our family is lucky that she does otherwise no one would know where anything is at.
It has to be some sort of superpower. In the presence of your mom, you can always feel safe. Sometimes you need to talk it out, and you want someone who will just listen. They will listen without judgment and they will always be on your side.
Need to know anything about your insurance, your bills, or those spots on your leg? You and your mother have countless inside jokes. Even at the age of 20 she will still pin you down and tickle you, because she can and because she knows every one of your tickle spots. Moms are a special kind of human. There is a reason they are often referred to as supermoms. These sweet individuals are always trying to make our lives easier, and bless their souls for that.
A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it. A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.
Sometimes your first true love is your best friend. This person picked you, out of everyone else, to be the one they connect most with. Love the crap out of them. It's calming to know that they will be one of the first to come looking for you if you miss their call. If a friend does the same embarrassing thing as you just to make you feel less alone, they truly care. Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed.
