Susan-

I love your mom. We can only hope & pray that we turn out like our mother's.
I know they both drive us crazy at times, but how lucky we are to have them both in our adult lives!

I have a plaque that hangs in my livingroom that says, "Mirror, mirror on the wall I am my Mother after all."

I'm becoming my mother, my mother is becoming my grandmother, and my daughter is just like I was.

What beautiful words! It's not my mother I see in my bathroom mirror, it's my father. There was a time when that would have given me pause for concern. But then I grew up and realized it's cause to smile.

That was a wonderful post.

As usual, you've written a gorgeous post and given me tiny shivers along my spine.

Love, love, love your blog...

Oh, y'all are so cute! And I know what you're talking about. I see my Mom when I look in the mirror, too!

Lovely thoughts towards your mom. It sounds like you are very proud to represent her in the ways that you do. Beautiful! :O)

What a great blog...and SO TRUE! I am becoming my mother more and more each day. It's so funny, my kids will be doing something they shouldn't and we'll stop in the middle of our conversation and blurt out the same thing in the same sweet tone to them! LOL

Beautiful post. It's so evident that your mother is a special part of your life. I too, see my mother in my reflection and I wouldn't have it any other way. :)

This is such a beautiful portrayal of your mom and yourself. You're very blessed to love those traits that are hers and have such a great model of them.

2009-09-29T12:43:01.533-07:00

Love this blog! I can totally relate! My mother and I get mistaken for sisters all the time instead of mother and daughter. We also get reminded how much our mannerisms are also alike and that people can not tell us apart on the phone. I still sometimes cringe when I hear these things but you reminded that it can be a great thing as well!

This is great. I hear my Mom taking up residency ...

2009-09-29T11:59:47.741-07:00

This is great. I hear my Mom taking up residency in my words almost daily now. (But I'm not so sure my husband is happy about that....)

2009-09-29T10:54:17.028-07:00

Susan...what wonderful sentiments about your Momma! I hope she reads this and smiles with GREAT love and pride!!
I revere (and resemble) my mother in much the same way. We do NOT look alike as some moms and daughters do but BOY do I ACT like her the older I get!

It is a compliment to our Moms!!
Bravo on your sweet post!

I always tell my kids, "We become our parents - whether we want to or not."

They scream, "NOOOO!!!"

Hopefully one day, they'll feel like you.

What a beautiful and touching tribute to your mom....

2009-09-29T09:10:01.726-07:00

What a beautiful and touching tribute to your mom. For me, I see my dad (physically my mom). I hear my dad's words come from my lips and it's like "whoa! what happened there?!"

Susan's mother Kathy, is lovely inside and out, and so is Susan. I should know they are some of my bestest friends. Glad to know you guys. Oh and I think my mother is following me or is she leading me?

There is always a part of us that lives on in our Mothers. It's always been said that we all turn into our Mothers...I wonder if that is true?
That way I know that my Mother never left.
Beautiful poem, I just loved it!

What a great tribute to your mother!

2009-09-29T06:50:34.994-07:00

That's such a good way to think of it. I can definitely see my mom in myself more and more these days, and as close as I am to her - I can't imagine losing her. But the way you put it is comforting and nice. Well done!
