My parents are the bomb.com....simply put. I couldn't have ever in my life wished for better role models/supportive/loving/fun parents! Seriously. Not only are they amazing in the love and support they have provided me over the years, I actually like to hang out (i.e. party, not just be with them) with my parents!! My parents and their friends are FUN. Mikey and I always say we want to be just like them when we grow up!
I think I am a good combination of both. I am a lot like my dad in many ways: we are both very impatient, opinionated, and passionate. Even though I am probably a "momma's" girl.... I'm the only one in the family (sorry brother!) who can sweetly talk my daddy into things, or calm him down over other things. Of course that's normal...that's what little girls are to their daddies. My dad is amazing. He would give the shirt off of his back as long as I was happy and had something I needed. That's just how he is. The most selfless, loving daddy in the world. My dad and my relationship is seen perfectly in what we chose to dance to in our first dance at my wedding. We are very close, but my dad nor I are the real emotional/"sweet" types. We shagged instead of "slow dancing." It fit me and my dad's personalities and relationship to a tee. And...if you don't know what the "shag" is...look it up. The state dance of South Cackalack, yo. Anyways, we had a blast shagging together....we even took lessons, my dad thinks he can shag already...but he was definitely nervous the first minute. My daddy is hands down the BEST in the world, and I feel so blessed for that.
Mom and I are best friends. Simple as that. We talk on the phone at least twice a day. We tend to look alike, we have a lot of the same mannerisms, but my mom is much sweeter and much more laid back than I am=) She doesn't like to be the center of attention (where as I totally dig it just like my daddy), she doesn't like to argue (again, I love a good debate...another one of my dad's traits), and she is very patient. Again, I'm not. But, we seem to balance each other well. Mom has always always been there for me and would have given me the world if she could. I know my mom probably sacrificed a lot when I was younger so that I could have everything a little girl could dream of. She always went above and beyond to make me happy, provide for me, love me, etc. I hope that I can be half the mother to my children as she was to me. All will be right in the world if I can do that. She is one of the most loving and giving mothers I have ever seen. Again, another contender for BEST momma in the world.
My wonderfully, amazing parents and me at my wedding.
