I love my mother. So very much. I know we are supposed to dread growing up and becoming our mothers, but if I grow up to be my mom, it will be just fine. She thinks she's not handling this crisis very well but it isn't true at all. Melinda Rachel Wagner Esteban is the strongest woman I know. It takes a lot to keep food on the table for three teenaged boys, a fifth grader, her twenty-year-old daughter, and a morbidly obese dog, let alone herself. She does all that, keeps up with the house, and manages to get to the gym every day, while working full-time with senior citizens. If there is a Superwoman award out there, I officially nominate her.
That's all for today. I know I've been bitching about my life a lot lately, but sometimes having my mom in my life is enough to remind me that it isn't so bad after all. I have a loving family, and the five of us (and Allen) will get through this together.
