It's been three years since I've seen my mother. We had a falling out after she caught me with my boyfriend at the time in her bed. She was angry and hurt, but I think deep down she knew that it wasn't going to last between us. I'm glad we made up eventually because I love her dearly.
My father passed away when I was young, so it was just me and my mom growing up. We were poor, but she worked hard to provide for me and gave me everything she could. When I got older, she struggled with addiction and I had to grow up fast to take care of myself and our home. It's been tough, but we've always managed to be there for each other.
I'm so grateful that my mom is back in my life now. We may not agree on everything, but at the end of the day she loves me unconditionally and I love her the same way. I know we'll always have our differences, but I'm glad we're working through them together. My boyfriend's family has been great too - they've welcomed me into their home with open arms and I feel like I've found a real support system there.
I think about my mom all the time and how lucky I am to have her in my life. We may not be perfect, but we're working on it together and that's what matters most. She taught me so much growing up - not just about life, but also about love and relationships
