And Before I Knew What Was Happening....

Let me start by saying that I love my mother dearly. 

But tell me girls, have you ever had a moment where you realize that without any warning at all you are becoming your mom.  It's never 100%.  Just a moment at time.  One minute you are walking around a totally normal person, and the next minute you are unloading your cart at the checkout and insisting the checker keep all the frozen things together.  Or you are ordering in the drive thru and you hear yourself request "extra ice."  From the order of  your fridge to the words our of your mouth, she's there.  And you know, for better or for worse (but mostly for better), she's left an imprint on your soul so deep you don't even see it coming.  And you aren't sure whether you should laugh or cry.

Your turn.  Any ways you all see yourself becoming like your mom?  Let me hear about it in the comments.

  1. OMG, that is so true... my most recent example of her (and my) control issues.... My sweet boyfriend agrees to make my lunch one morning because I am running laste for work, and proceed to tell him which sandwich bags to use for what items so that the "good bags" don't go to waste.... again, Oh My Gosh.... I have turned in to her....
