Two Peas In A Pod……….
She drives a car just like mine.
Thought you only liked those sporty, hot convertibles.
She eats peanut butter with a spoon straight from the jar like me.
Thought that was gross.
She loves to work in her flower bed and garden like I do.
Thought you hated to get those perfectly manicured nails dirty.
She washes clothes only if her family is starting to rewear their underwear, hey same as me.
Thought that was pretty lazy.
She grows vegetables like me and plans on freezing them for winter like I always did.
Thought that was why God invented grocery stores.
She sews and creates fabric art project, just like I love to do.
Thought sewing was lame and for old people.
Don’t look now, Earth Child. And I really don’t know how to tell you..
But (hehe) you have become your mother.

Yes. It happens to the best of us. I’ve seen the signs for several years now. The worst part is that I’m also seeing signs that I’m becoming MY GRANDMOTHER! A bit premature if you ask me.

Oh, Zel! This is absolutely wonderful. I hope it gets a broader audience somehow, because it’s really terrific. I love it. (And yes I became my mother long ago…)

The fruit doesn’t fall far from the tree, does it? And it’s a good thing, especially when the parent has good qualities, like the ones you mentioned. And it’s kind of funny, isn’t it? Her kids may just say the same thing to her.
PS I love having Mom’s qualities but when I see her hands, beginning to wrinkle and have brown spots, on the ends of my arms, well, then I’m not so happy

Yes… whether we like it or not. But (if we are honest) in the end, we really do like it!
