[quote=Anonymous]I consdier my mom and I to be friends. She doesn't offer a lot of unsolicited advice--she will make suggestions, etc., but she doesn't feel the need to tell me that I'm doing it wrong just because I'm doing it differently than she did. She's super helpful, always supportive, and fun to be around. She's a fantastic houseguest, a flexible traveler, organized, and always up for whatever. She's also pretty smart about people and often has good advice about things at work and friendships. On the other hand, she will ask my advice about stuff that's in my wheelhouse--she went back to college when I was in college and would ask me to read her papers because I'm a better writer. We had some rough moments when I was at home, because we are actually really different people, but she loves me and knows me better than anyone. And especially now that I'm a mom myself, I understand how much she did for me. I appreciate her, and I also really like her. [/quote]
