Although she may be driving you crazy right now with packing for college, you'll be missing these moments in a few weeks. This one is for you, mom, and all the times I wish you could FedEx yourself to my dorm.

1) She always motivates you to get work done.

No matter what you do, chances are your mom will support you through it all with encouragement.

2) You'll forget how homemade food tastes.

When was the last time you ate something that wasn't from a microwave or pre-packaged?

3) Sometimes you'll need someone to stick up for you.

Fighting with the registrar office? Arguing with your professor about an unjust grade? If your mom was there, there wouldn't be a problem.

4) Or you need to tell somebody gossip.

Not only does she always listen, but she won't tell a single soul.

5) You're gonna have to ask her about weird adult stuff.

How long do I cook chicken for? What setting do I put on the washing machine? How much do postage stamps cost? She knows it all.

6) And sometimes you'll really need a good hug.

Nobody hugs you as tightly as your mom does.

7) You'll miss her helping you make healthy choices.

8) And always having someone to laugh with.

You'll miss those little moments when you and your mom can't stop cracking up.

9) Mostly you'll miss being able to hang out and talk to her 24/7 about anything.

She would always be there when you needed to vent, or get some advice.

10) But, never forget that she's always a phone call away.

We all miss our moms at college, and of course our moms miss us. Don't forget to call your mom, ask her for advice, tell her you love her, and thank her for all she's done for you. We couldn't have done this without you, mom!
