• Let’s Ask Mom

    I was always a people pleaser as a young child.  I never wanted to disappoint my parents with my actions.  For example, on a Sunday morning when I was 6, I was ready for church before everyone else and was told I could go outside if I didn’t get dirty.  I was found a few minutes later, sitting in my little lawn chair by the side of the road, patiently waiting for the rest of the family.  See…  people pleaser.

  • I Am My Mother After All

     I was 18 years old and sitting at Mom’s vanity doing my makeup.  Mom came up behind me and put her hands on my shoulders.  I looked from my face to hers and back to mine again and I started to cry a little.  I said,  “Oh My God…  I DO look like you!”  Boy, I sure know how to make someone feel like a million bucks!  That’s just one way that I’m like my mom.
