7 Reasons My Mom Is My Best Friend
Kayla Farrell

"Mama you taught me to do the right things, so now you have to let your baby fly." –Carrie Underwood, "Mama's Song"

Moms are the best gift one can receive. A good relationship with your mom is a wonderful thing to have. I love my mom with all my heart and without her, I don't know where I'd be today. She supports me through everything and never leaves me when we need her most. Not sure how I got so lucky to have the world's best mom, but I sure am grateful to be able to call her not only my mom, but also my best friend. Here is why moms are the best friends a daughter could have.


1. Well for starters, she's been there since birth... there's no more special bond than that.

Nothing like forming a bond by pushing someone out of your uterus, right? She fed me and clothed me and made sure I was the cutest baby on the block.

2. My mom has been there for me through the tears and the heartbreaks.

.

She's gotten me through my many downfalls and picked me up every time.

3. But she's also been there through the best times of my life.

She was there when I graduated preschool, she was there when I graduated high school, she's the one that got me there in the first place.

4. My mom and I have a bond like no other. She's my right hand, my go-to.

I know, I know, how cheesy?

5. She has always been a role model and has shown me that it is okay to be independent, in fact, it’s better that way.

.

My mom is the most independent woman I know and she has shown me how much better it is to make success for yourself, by yourself. It's more rewarding that way.

6. I can talk to my mom about basically everything.

From what I had to drink last night, to what's new on Netflix, it's always a good time talking to her.

7. She's the one person I know will never leave me or tell my secrets.

Friends will come and go, along with your secrets they will probably tell, but not your mom! She has to love you and keep your secrets...it's her job!

Thank you for being there at my highest points and all of my lowest as well, and thank you for never leaving even when everyone else did. You’re my role model and I hope to be half the woman you are some day.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
