You Are Totally Like Your Mom
You and your mom are practically clones.
You think alike, and you even seem to read each other's minds.
And while you get along well now, you probably fought when you were a teenager.
You're definitely you're mother's child... and that's just fine with you.

Good piece. I think I know what happened to the headline. Whenever you see little boxes in what you’re attempting to paste, remove them and the headline will read the way it was intended.

You Are Somewhat Like Your Mom
Believe it or not, you and your mom are pretty darn similar.
It may not seem like it at times, but you and your mom have a lot of common ground.
You and your mom do understand each other well. You may just need to work on communication.
Over time, you'll probably get closer ... especially if you emphasize the things you like about each other.
