Growing up I spent almost all my days with my mom . We went to the store together, she dropped me off at school, she picked me up from school, she took me to any school function I needed to be at, all without complaining. I've spent more time in my almost 19 years of life with my mom, than I have alone.
My mom is one of the only people who has ever actually been there for me. Through every breakup, bad day, good day, long night, bad test grade, or any time I needed someone to talk to, she's been there and that's just not something you find in everyone these days.
Some people find it weird how close my mom and me are. She's 100%, without a doubt the best friend I've ever had. I've never felt like I couldn't go to her for something. She listens to me without judging, she's brutally honest, and she makes me feel like I can take on the world. She's everything you could ever want in a best friend and more.
I can't even count all the times she's offered to drive somewhere to help me, or how many times she's listened to me cry and complain on the phone because things aren't going the way I want them to. If I want to go do something, she one of the first people I invite. We go on constant lunch dates together and there's honestly nobody I would rather have with me.
Because my mom is my best friend, I never feel alone, and anytime I feel lost she guides me back to where I need to be.
