#17 I Was Able To Give My Daughters A Bedroom. I Never Had One Growing Up
I grew up poor and violated, and my mom wouldn’t let me sleep alone until I was 12. Being able to give my sweet girls a nice bedroom means so much to me.
Also, I get to finally be SAHP, a dream of mine, and go back to college!
It just makes me smile to know two little girls have a nice room that I worked hard to get them.

#18 First Thanksgiving As A Mom
First Thanksgiving as a mom. We don’t have family or friends in town, and couldn’t afford to travel this year, so I cooked an entire Thanksgiving dinner for the 3 of us. It’s nothing special, but I’m really proud of it considering my extremely limited counter space in our tiny apartment and my limited cooking experience. It was also my 8-month-old son’s first time with table food; he did really well.

#31 My Mom Has Secretly Been Getting Me Uranium Glass
I absolutely love uranium glass. It’s so fascinating to me, anything radioactive really is. Maria Skłodowska-Curie has been such an inspiration to me for as long as I can remember, and inspired me to major in chemistry and hopefully work in some kind of nuclear chemistry field in the future. I got my first piece of uranium glass a few months ago, right before I went off to college. I finally had the opportunity to go back home for the weekend from college, and I found out my mom has secretly been getting me uranium glass to add to my collection! I can’t describe the joy I feel about this. I just needed to share.

#32 My Mom Thinks That I’m Smart
She called last night to talk about the plane crash and political stuff, which she isn’t the most well-versed on. I talked for about an hour about various things, and about this book that I’m writing (she was my first beta reader).
She’s very supportive and sweet. Brought my spirits up.

#60 I Have Fibromyalgia, So My Mom Gave Me Two Bottles Of Hot Water To Wash My Hands
It’s winter in South America. I have fibromyalgia, and it gets worse in the cold, but the last two days have been the coldest since winter started.
We don’t have a gas heater (it’s not that common here, especially in older buildings), and I feel pain every time I have to wash my hands because of the cold water from the faucet.
So today my mom gave me two thermal bottles of hot water to wash my hands, and I’m not in pain anymore.
Best mom ever.

My mom and Dad live locally to me; this year, they went across the country to visit their grandbabies and my brother and SIL for Xmas. Mom arranged for someone to drop off an amazing handmade gift for me every day that they are away, since it is my first Xmas alone! Please excuse the animal hair. I have several animals.
