Mother Daughter Blogs

When I look into my baby daughter’s eyes, even if she is crying, she smiles at me. It fills my heart and breaks it. I can’t read the future. I cannot say how my baby girl and I will get along when she is a teenager and I am going through menopause. I do not know if the world itself will look like it does now, or if all things will have changed, even us. I hope we will always, always have reason to look each other in the eye and smile.
I have a role models for what I hope my own relationship with my girl will look like. I hope my daughter and I get along like my friends Yvonne and Gill. Gill has just returned to Vancouver for a break from her year as an au pair in Paris. Yvonne, is the midst of a career change.  Mother and daughter blog on how happy they are to be back in each other’s sphere. Reading their blogs makes me want to call my mother even though I spoke to her just yesterday.
