I am not who I sleep with. I am not my weight. I am not my mother. I am myself. And I am all of you, and I thank you Picture Quote #1

I think of myself as a fairly attractive girl and always have, thanks to my mom. I was brought into this world thinking I was gorgeous because my mother was extremely devoted to this notion Picture Quote #1

No matter how successful I got, my mother still thinks I’m a bad person, basically Picture Quote #1

When I grew up, it was a time when women were just supposed to be cute and not have many opinions. My mother and her friends were quite different. They were all the most beautiful women you’ve ever seen, and they were very strong women Picture Quote #1

There’s a common saying that everybody deep at heart loves their mother, except sometimes we decide our actual mothers don’t measure up. And so we look for a replacement Picture Quote #1

My mother taught me what it is to have a sense of humour; my dad, who was a headmaster, everything you need to know about hard work. My dad is the most decent man you could come across Picture Quote #1
