Yesterday I overheard my 15 year old daughter say to a friend on the phone, "Oh I don't know, I kind of like my Mom."
I smiled inside when I heard her say that. Not in a self-congratulatory way mind you, but in a grateful, I-love-you-too kind of way.
My teen daughter and I still enjoy a warm relationship. We don't always agree, we argue sometimes, and we even embarrass one another on occasion; but all in all, we genuinely love and respect one another.
Our relationship is an incredible gift for both of us.
I know that relationships change and I expect that ours will as well; but for now, I'm just grateful to know that my daughter is transforming into a woman whom I both love and like!
