The Relationship Between My Mother And My Father

Improved Essays
In order for you to become a person you initially need an egg and a sperm cell. Typically you have a mother to father ratio, although that has been successfully changing and improving within society for a number of years. I grew up with the typical set, one mom and one dad. My mother is a petite woman, she stands at five foot four inches and she has the softest features. The women of my mother’s side all possess the same traits, these serenely crystal blue eyes and sun kissed blonde hair. My father on the other hand is six foot and has large goofy-looking everything. The man has dark hooded brown eyes, salt and pepper hair, and rough to the touch skin. I am tall and statuesque with hazel eyes and very soft skin so I got the perfect mixture …show more content…
Unfortunately for me, marriages are no longer everlasting and my parents joined a large amount of others in the divorce rate statistics. Regardless of the choice that your parents have made to either stay together or part ways, you tend to choose one of the two in your early years to become your confidant. The relationship between my mother and me has always been an emotionally bumpy ride. During my parents split I had needed someone to blame, someone to drain all of my anger and sadness onto. At first I had not wanted to make a choice because choosing sides seemed like a really awful thing to do to the two people who love you the most. My parents proceeded to put me in the middle which had caused me to lash out at both several of times, but luckily I found my way with both. My mother has become my best friend and truthfully the only person I can trust to the fullest extent. In my original rough draft I had thought that the best way to talk about my mom’s importance was by bashing the way my father raised me. I know now that my parents both tried their best, each with their own faults and …show more content…
Nobody deserves to be treated the way my mom is, not a single soul. I worry that one day she is going to decide she doesn’t want to put up with it anymore and she moves away without telling anyone, I worry that she decides to end it all and I pray to god that it never gets to that point. I want the world, if not that then our small English class, to comprehend how wonderful and selfless my mother truly can be. There is nothing I love more than hugging my mom, her hugs are warm and inviting and she makes me feel incredibly safe and loved. The giggles that rise out of her throat after laying in her bed eating popsicles and watching our most beloved TV show are just my absolute favorite. Everyone wishes for parents who will accept them for whoever they choose to be and I know that my parents do exactly just that. I recently got my first tattoo, it’s a large bleeding strawberry on my left shoulder blade. The artist did some fantastic work, the color and lines are just incredible. I was scared that my mother wouldn’t approve or would try to talk me out of it so I did the one thing that I hate doing, I

    While frantically searching through photos to use in a slideshow for the funeral, we found it difficult to find pictures of the entire family together. Reflecting on this made us realize that we focused too much on the sour, bitter memories and not enough on making amends and cherishing the moments we had left with him. Immediately, we felt as though it was our fault and we were guilty of wasting precious time. My aunt gave birth to her first daughter, Nora, in November of 2014. Knowing that her father wouldn’t live to see the baby grow into a beautiful young girl, she broke down and admitted she regretted focusing on the arguments and disputes and not enough on what was important: making lasting memories.…

    I always love my friends and would go all out the way for them just to see them most of them would do the same while sometimes the others did care about me as much as I did. Then all of a sudden they started to turn their backs on me and be two faced towards me and I would go home and cry to my mom and be very upset because my friends weren’t themselves any more and just mean to me. She would tell me that some day that God would send me an true friend and if they are your true friend they wouldn’t believe everything that they would hear. I never really meant what my mom said until I actually grew up and notice it to myself. I now don’t even care to much about friends and if someone talks to me or not.…

    When thinking of a major event that may have affected my life in some way, I think I would have to say was growing up without my biological father and him not being a part of my life. I know I am not the only girl that grew up without a father and I hate using that excuse of me being the way I am, but because of him not playing the role of my father or any role at that it made me strong minded, but it also made me feel at times unwanted and fear of being rejected. I feel this affected me because although I had enough love from my mom, I still felt a part of me was missing. I remember my dad would make every excuse in the book on why he wasn’t able to see me or come pick me up for the weekend. My mom never depended on him for anything, she always gave him an open door policy.…

    This past March, Barbie turned the mighty age of fifty six(Walker 1). To this day, she still holds the position of being a girl’s ideal perfect body image, and the age immune doll. “In 1998 Barbie’s waist expanded and bust was made smaller to reflect a more ‘real’ body type”(Golgowski).

    There is something about a good shoe that woman cannot resist. I believe this trait is passed down to our littles girls in Utero. Most baby girls end up with a shoe collection much nicer than our own before they are even born. I was lucky enough to receive my first pair of Jady Baby's the day Miss Zoe was born, they actually arrived in the mail that day! I've written about Jady Baby's a few times now but I think this time feels so much more important because I've met the lady behind the brand miss Jade Barr herself.…

    One of the values that I have is to always respect my mother; some of the things I have done in my past, I’m not the proudest of, and I know that my mother does not approve of what I have done. I wasn’t the smartest person with my decisions and just did whatever I wanted. There are about three things I used to do to my mom that I would never do now; lie, disrespect and trick, and, looking back, I understand how horrible of a child I was to her. Now I can say the person I have become now is someone who makes my parents proud, and I am now proud of the actions I’ve taken and the accomplishments I have made. About a year or two years ago I wasn’t friends with the greatest people and I just went with whatever they said we should do, I would tell my parents I was going one place and go somewhere else, lie about what we did that night, etc.…
