Childhood
A shameful daughter tales
We’re all here because of the love our parents has for a little “playtime” right? Lol, we may not know (definitely don’t want to know) how EXACTLY we got here but we do know the “do” was done. Some of us have mother’s and no father and we tend to give our mothers the father role because the man who helped concieve us were out not in the picture. Well at least I know for years my mother gave herself that role and even played it well.

What I Never Wanted to Say
Dear Mom, I have a confession to make. Lately I’ve been thinking back on my childhood—from my earliest memory through the day I moved out. It shocked me to realize we disagreed about so many things. Seems like we were at odds a lot more than we were in agreement. I’m not saying you didn’t love me or weren’t there when and how I needed you. Only that there were things I couldn’t say to you because we didn’t have that sitcom mother/daughter relationship I always coveted.

From Love to Hate. And Back Again
Dear Mum, The love a mother has for their children is almost indescribable. It’s pure and unconditional. At least - it's supposed to be. A mother is supposed to be open with their affection and selfless when it comes to their children.

Sweet mother
Hey Mother I am never told you this before because I was scared to see how you will react. I know you raised me to be true to you no matter what. Do you remember when I was ten years old?. You find a lot of goodies in my bag from school. when you asked me where I get it. I told you that I bought them. It was not true.

Alone Adventures
"Hey Mom. I never told you this before, but...” Actually let me start off with saying I love you as do all five of my other siblings. You gave us life and protected us well into Adult hood. Your so beautiful and full of life doubting the strong "King with tits" that you showed through sacrificing your time to make sure we didn't end up ended but well taken care of. You are a true inspiration, the reason I am who I am today. No difference we have will ever ruin our bond, it's a never-ending treasure.

Hearing problems
I had always been a quiet child I was really shy and took many years to come out of my shell and be more confident. In elementary school I never would have put my hand up to answer a question not even if you bribed me with a million dollars or unlimited amounts of chocolate. As the year went on not many concerns were raised until the teacher marked my test and was surprised that I had done really well as I never make contributions in class or never really participated in group work. Over the summer break my teacher put me forward to take some tests, testing for things such as autism etc but the funniest part about it all was that I was submitted for a hearing test despite having no difficulty with my hearing. Surprise surprise there was no issues with my hearing which my teacher was so shocked by and couldn’t understand why a made so little contribution in class as I clearly knew lots of things evident from my tests and I simply replied “I don’t like putting my hand up and I also never like the people I work in groups with as well as being extremely lazy” so the teacher made some changes to the groups and accepted the fact that I was a little shy but tried to get me to put my hand up more.

Dear Mother
Dear Mother, It has been 10 years since we have talked, but I want you to know that, not a day goes by that you do not cross my mind. I am forty-one now and so much has occurred in the last ten years. First, genetics finally caught up with me. You were twenty-five when you had your first heart attack- I was lucky to dodge the bullet till thirty-nine ( I guess I was doing something right- insert crying laughing emoji) After two heart attacks with a coding incident, one pacemaker, six blood clots and taking a handful of pills on purpose daily- I am happy to announce that I am still here to continue seeing your grandchildren who are now fifteen and sixteen, make it to adult hood. I say this because, with the uncensored reality of my mortality -there is something vital I need you to know before we see one another. I know the day will come, and we will be face to face, so I want to clear the air, so we can start our second relationship fresh.

A Salamander's Confession
Mother, I debated for a long time whether this was even worth writing, and I’m fully aware that as you read this your face will transform with your self-righteous laughter, as if it’s the height of hubris for me to appeal to you in any way. You, the mighty mountain of motherhood. The one who sacrificed all her happiness for the health and well-being of her children. The one who put her entire life on hold to ensure we wanted for nothing. And then there’s me, the Lucifer to your Michael. The fallen one. The swamp dweller. The one still crawling around on her belly while you walk on your own two feet.

Bored and lonely
To my rock, my role model, and my Mother, You have been many things in my life, and we have shared a hundred thousand moments together. We are as close as they come for mother-daughter relationships, but this was not always the case, at least not as a child and most definitely not as a teenager. This relationship didn’t fully develop until I was a full-blown mother and maybe not even until I became a grandmother. As an only child, I often wondered why you never blessed me with siblings. Although I was always happy being on my own and occupying my own space, I came to realise how lonely I really was growing up after having my own children and watching them play, interact, and develop such special relationships with one another. In hindsight, the reality of it is that I really had no choice but to be comfortable on my own and in my own skin
