It's me again!

Haha. So this semester is over (one down, four to go) and I was thinking of something that I learned in psychology. On our quizzes, we have open ended questions to answer for bonus points. On question asked what we feared (it was more in depth than that, but for my purposes it's simplified). Our teacher mentioned that one of the top three fears that women have is becoming like their mother. To me, that is so sad! I'm already like my mother in so many ways, but have yet to achieve close to what she has.

For example, our keys.



Before I knew it, I had all this crap on my keychain! But don't worry, it's still not as bad as my moms. Haha (sorry mom!).

Second, cooking. My mom is an amazing cook. She can make anything and it all tastes good (except eggplants; blech). Now, while I'm not an amazing cook, I definitely hold my own when it comes to creating in the kitchen.



Ohhhh yeah. That's steamed salmon there with rice and steamed veggies. I made it with our awesome new bamboo steamer (compliments of my family). Brandon died and cried in happiness. :)

Thirdly, reading. I must have got my love of reading from my mom because my dad doesn't read so much. If she could, I know she'd read for days on end. I love to read as well, however, I don't just read. I live books. I devour books. The world the author created becomes my own (even if only in my head). Books are amazing :).

Lastly, crafting. My mom is an awesome crafter. She makes these amazing quilts. Now, I haven't gotten to the point where I can quilt, but I did make Amanda a cool bag for Christmas.

Certainly there are a million more ways that I'm like my amazing mother.



That's my mom! Isn't she pretty :D. In the end, I know that if I become my mom it won't be so bad.
