My mom and me: Just call us “The Cheekbone Twins”
“You are so beautiful, Mommy.”
These are the words I can remember thinking in my head, long before I can even remember being able to say these words to her.
Then, when I could talk, I told her so much, that she would actually tell me not to.
She never believed them.
But I could never refrain.
Because my mom is THAT beautiful.
I always wanted to look like her, and while I always looked more like my dad, I love that Facebook now tags her every time I post a picture of myself.
Seems like I had to grow into myself before I could grow into her cheekbones.
She will always be the definition of beauty to me.
And, it doesn’t hurt that she’s killer smart.
Wicked combo.
