My Mum

She would have to be one of the most unique people you'll ever meet.
She has the ability to liven up the dullest of atmospheres with her quick
wit and magnetic personality.
I just love being around to watch the way people react when she is in their presence.

It doesn't seem like long ago when I would hold her hand and we would walk up to the shops together and buy 20c worth of milk bottles (my favorite lollies).....
and now here I am a Mum myself.
When I'm overwhelmed with things in my own life I'll call her and she is always my sanctuary, I don't even have to talk to her about how I'm feeling I just listen to her voice and I'm that 4 year old kid again and what I was uptight about just dissolves.
( Isn't it funny that a voice can be such an anchor to certain emotions and comforts.)

I hate being so far away from her ( she lives interstate) but I ring her regularly, maybe even too regularly ,she calls me her' stalker'.

She can make me laugh even when I don't feel like laughing ( not an easy task for some, in fact it could even be dangerous ). I love her for all these things and more.

If she was reading this now she would be saying " Well whats the more! write about the more! I wanna hear about the more!"
Too many mores to write Mum :) , but know you are a real light for me and I never want to be without you.
