Yesterday while sitting in my apartment my mom and I chatted some about general life things, nothing too exciting. We were talking about babies as I had just come from a baby shower and my mom told me that she didn't want to hear anytime soon that any one of her girls were having a baby because we are all single. That's understandable, my older sister had a baby boy 7 years ago and now the father isn't a part of his life. It was hard on the entire family. But then my mom says almost completely unaware of what was coming out of her mouth "What I really want so badly is for one of you girls to find a good man." :( Yes, this is where my heart started aching. I want that too mom. I wish she wouldn't have said that though. It's tough enough knowing I may never find someone to fall in love with and who loves me to the moon and back. It's hard enough to know that I really want that and might not get it but to hear my mom say how badly she wants that....it's almost too much. It's not even just the words she spoke but rather the way she said them and how she seemed to almost loose herself in this perfect little world when she thought about it.
Mom, I hope I can give you a wonderful son-in-law someday. I promise I want that too.
