i love my mutti!
it's mutti's day! woohoot! and in the tradition of generosity and some odd presents, i gave my mutti a REtroSPECT CD cos she's been talking about how she loves them (though they seem pretty weird for mutti who was once a Black Sabbath fan).
when i grow up, i want to be just like my own mutti. she has a great sense of fashion, great sense of humor and good sense altogether. she's never been pushy with my endeavors and she's very open-minded.
every other motherly neighbor i know has gone through days of paranoia with their teenage kids. i overheard mutti talking to a neighbor once about the juvenile delinquency and the countless stupid things kids do to look cool.
"My daughter can smoke anything she wants. She'll just have to spend her own money. I will not pay for that kind of -bleep-!"Hahahahaha. But I know she'll slit my throat even if i buy "stuff" with my own money.
It must be so hard to be a mutti, especially with a psychotic daughter like me. It is a miracle the way most mothers can see every bit of potential and beauty within their children.
For example, Mrs.Neighbourly-Snot (who is a fattie) has a daughter (who is also a fattie). I was out with Mutti one time and M.N-S came up to her and literally exclaimed,
"Oh my gawd! What happened to your daughter???!! Why did you let her get this big???!!!"I could not believe she actually said that to my mother, and I was there t hear it!!! I badly wanted to see her get attacked by a grizzly bear. But of course, Mutti was always sane and just smiled, "It's okay. It's the summer vacation anyway."
I felt betrayed. It's a good thing to be decent for most times but this one called for massive Jerry Springer action!!! That Neighbourly-Snot!!!But, alas! Out of nowhere comes Mrs. Neighbourly Snot's daughter and she was thrice my size!!!!!! (to think that she's younger...) It was supposedly a Ha-Ha moment for me, but I thought every daughter looks like a pin-up girl in the eyes of her mom.You see, every fattie needs another fattie to realize she isn't the only one in the world. I could have gone snotier with Mrs. Neighbourly-Snot but I know later on I'd think that my future daughter will be the Queen of the Universe.
Now, what was that???!?!!
Let me just finish this one.
Dear Mutti,You are my most favorite Mutti in the world. Thank you for everything that you have done for me. I forgive you for passing on your flat-as-a-pancake feet genes and oily skin genes to me. I also forgive you for all the times you tell me I'm adopted and that someone only left me by your doorstep. In any case, I would still feel equally lucky, blessed, happy and proud to have you as my Mutti. I want to grow up just like you, minus the grey hairs at age 30. I promise to be a responsible, tax-paying citizen just like you taught me. I love you Mutti! My first big paycheck shall go to our reconstructive foot surgery!Hugs!Hugs!Brooke Shields (yes, that what she calls me)Labels: mother's day, mutti
