My mother never...

My mother never became very close to me. She is always closer to my brother, maybe because he is the youngest. This always botheres me. I think about it and I will never be this way with my daughter. I always thought that I'd be close to my child or children. I will have a bond with my daughter that no one will break. Ever. My daughter will know she can tell me anything that she needs to and I will never judge her. I will always be there for her like a mother should be.

Growing up I think the lack of closeness had a lot to do with the problems my mom and I had, I never thought that I could give her the trust I thought I should be able to as my mom. So as usual as a child I'd try and keep things from her. Even to this day I never tell her things unless I really have to. This is why I strive so much to be a great mother to my daughter. I make it a point to make her know she is loved and my main focus in my life. Even someday if I ever have any other children I will never treat my kids differently. They will each always have a very close bond with their mom if I have anything to do with it.
