My mother was the opposite. She was manager of an auto parts store and she hunted and fished for hobbies. She was very strong-willed and beautiful, and as a result had very few women friends.

I wanted to grow-up to be just like her. One thing we have in common is few women friends. I have 4 close friends, all from different periods of my life. I lose track of them, then reconnect. These are very special people...I have been very blessed. Sometimes, less is more.

You are blessed....and thats the kind of mother I try to be for my boys..someday I want them to tell their wives

Our mom was amazing..yes she cooked and cleaned and kept us in line but she also taught us to be truthful and shoot a gun properly while killing spiders and snakes while folding clothes...
