Someone high in my company once told me, jokingly..."my youngest daughter is exactly like me, my husband tells me she's my retribution...". I found it funny because i never saw it from the other side of the fence.
I am mommy's girl. I believe we all are, with minor adjustments and improvements from the prototype. I have come to terms with being Mom 2.0. We as daughters have the benefit of foresight, we can see what'll happen to us in 30 years and we'll run as fast as we can, away from the parts we can't live to be. But similarly, we will keep nurturing and improving the parts we like about them. I know i got the good hardware from my mom that i can harness towards a better life... And this process is difficult, we need all the help we can get from our partners, our friends, our family.
i'm sure that if one day, when God blesses me with a child in my image, she'll be Stella 2.0. and not forgetting that she'll incorporate some of the goodness from Lester too.

talk about moms.........@_@ if people think my mom has been difficult then i dunno what i'd be in future...
But i like the quote about daughters being our retribtution har har har. it must be my mom's biggest nightmare to see how i behave so much like her already...... LOLs
My mum's not the typical mum who cooks, clean and wash after us. She's a brat and proud of it. She goes online, chats on msn and is a gamer (conquering games like diablo and watsnots..). But while she's sorely lacking in the housework department, she makes up for it in the love department. So while i grumble about my mum, i still agree with you... there are mothers out there i'd really rather not have. :p
the somewhat-a-fan... =)
SAF> your mom sounds super cool. household chores is the last thing i'd worry about. Anyway, yeah no trading of moms. Better the devil you know than the devil you don't! haha...
Cousin> good luck! haha.
