Since I was born, my mother has been an idol for me, not only because she was the one that was more aware of what was happening in my life, but also because she was responsible for teaching me values. Despite our difference of age, my mother and I have many things in common, such as our responsibility, punctuality, optimism and politeness. Furthermore, biologically speaking, we are also very similar in terms of diseases and appearance.
What I most like about my mother is her sense of humor and patience. No matter what happens in her life she is always smiling and ready to help you solving your problems. The only thing I complain about my mother is her obsession with organization. There hasn’t been a time when she entered my bedroom and didn’t complain about my disorganization. Fortunately, since we are always on the same wavelength, when I talked to her that taking care of my bedroom was my responsibility and not hers she accepted the idea well and decided to stop worrying about how my bedroom looked.
However, in these sixteen years of daily contact it’s impossible for us not to have had any disagreements. I remember that, when I was younger, I didn’t use to be good at math, so that my mother decided to put me at Kumon. As a child, I didn’t want to lose my afternoons going to Kumon and there was no way for me to accept what she was proposing to me. That was the only time when we had a terrible argument. I couldn’t get across my point of view and neither she could. I also had a really hard time getting a word in edgewise and started crying, which made my mother change her opinion. Despite this argument, my mother and I usually have the same opinion and tastes. That’s why we usually have a conversation that flows, especially when we are talking about our favorite topics, such as trips and celebrities.
It’s been a long time since my mother and I started being friends, however, only a few things have changed on our relationship. We still like going to the same places, but nowadays we don’t play those child games that we used to play in the past, we prefer to play cards with the rest of the family. No matter what happens my mother will always be my best friend and the most special person in my life.
