She, too, took me to many shows and did so much for me. I was often a teenager focused on the things I saw wrong about her and not all she did for me. I have a coat story too. I often share it when I tell others how my mom always followed through on her parental reprimands. Something that doesn't seem to be done enough these days. She bought me this beautiful wool tan plaid coat with a brown velvet collar and the velvet helmet to match. We were at a show and it was raining. She asked me to put on the plastic hat cover and raincoat to protect the coat and hat. Of course, I was too cool and didn't want to wear the ugly raincoat and cover. She said if I didn't we would be leaving. I still said no and immediately I was told to dosmount and we were loading up and heading home. Not a happy drive, but a good lessoned learned! She did so much for me and I am glad that I am now able to appreciate all she did and honor her on Mother's day as well!Livinginthenowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01254514272676876616noreply@blogger.com
