So lovely and funny and completely relatable. She is blessed to have you as her mom, Tara.

Thank you, Margaret. I think I'm the lucky one, but it does feel good to still be a source of comfort to my kids. And it also feels good to be a bit of pain in the ass to them, as well. 😉

Beautiful poem Tara, I love how you have shown the mother/daughter battle and yet the love you share for one another too so beautifully x
