Like Mother Like Daughter

It's funny...there was a point in my life where I remember telling myself, "I am NEVER going to be like my mom! I am going to do everything she does the complete opposite! I just know it." Hahaha oh how I was such a brat...still am at times but definitely have matured. This morning my mom made me breakfast. She had a feeling that I would want more and offered to make me more even though I told her I was fine. She even told me how she needed to shred the meat more so she'll be in the kitchen anyways and can easily get me more. I insisted that I was really fine and she never got up...it then clicked to me that that is one thing that my mom and I have in common. We both like to serve other people. I ALWAYS try to do something for someone out of my way. This one experience came straight to my mind when I realized that common similarity between my mommy and I. When I was in 8th grade, we went on a choir trip to Disneyland. My friend Matt had a very limited amount of cash with him for food. When we went and got dinner, I noticed he was only ordering one item when I knew he was really hungry and should of order two items. So, I purposely bought two items of this certain food saying I was "really really hungry". When I finished my first item, I pretended to be really stuffed and offered the rest of my food to Matt. He graciously took it and ate it soooo fast! I definitely get that quality from my mother. She is always finding ways to serve people. She is way better at it then me lol but I sure do get it from her!


A random act of kindness can really go a long way
