Reconnecting...

So now that I am going to become a Mom, my Mom and I have become even closer.
This reconnection started with my wedding, petered out a little and is back in high gear.
My Mom has these great stories about being pregnant with me and a hippie Mom. What is also cool is I get to talk about things with her that we just normally don't.
Like politics. My Mom is a smart cookie but because she is a farm girl with only a high school education I think she gets a complex.
She shouldn't, she has had an amazing life and brings a lot of wordly wisdom to the table.
She used to be shy about telling me about her political leanings. Lately not as much. The more we talk the more I realize I get some of my personality from her as well as my Dad.
I just hope my children will have a good relationship with us.
Something to work on.
