Not to kill the morale but.....
Y'all are a trip. Here's mine:
I cannot get my mother to understand: How much my life changed when she passed away.
Focus on the postive stuff. I would do anything to have my mom call me before 7pm, give me advice, or fight my battles for me, or any other thing that used to get on my nerves. Trust me, when your mom is no longer there, you miss those little things that used to peeve you. And mother's day is so much more difficult, when you are a motherless new mother.
Happy mothers day to you all.

I wish she would understand that the reason why I don't tell her stuff is because she will hold it over my head later. I wish she'd understand that just because I don't talk to her everyday doesn't mean that I don't love her...I just have to love her from a distance. I wish she'd realize that her husband is the reason we aren't close. Ummm...I think I better stop now  .

Re: Not to kill the morale but.....
Wow, this is something to think about when some of us have complaints about how our mothers act sometimes. I know my mother thinks about this a lot, being that my grandmother passed in '86 when I was 8 1/2 years old.....

I wish my mom would understand that I can't have a job from 9-5 like she would love for me to, AND go to school 9-2. Mommy, I'm not cloned, nor will I be cloned. I have an almost full time job in the summer, so during school season can't I just have a slack job of some sort and it be ok with you????

No Matter How Hard I Try,
I Cannot Get My Mother to Understand...
that the reason my phone bill is so flaming high is because I'm talking to HER all day long!
We talk every single day, bare minimum an hour a day, over the dumbest stuff, watch tv/surf the internet together over the phone (yes, my roomate thinks I'm CRAZY) It's sweet, but she shows no mercy when that verizon bill comes through and she knows that all those charges are from HER phone! (we're like the people on the couples talk free commercial... we need to get that plan!)

I wish I could get ______ to realize_______
My Mom:
* Realize that sometimes I need you to be my Mom and not my friend...
* I'm the daughther, you're the mom...you're supposed to be responsible and in charge...not vice-versa
* It's hard to have respect for you like a mom when you've never been a mom
* I need you to be there sometimes
My Grandma:
* I love you
* I do hear what you have to say/I do listen
* I'm not my mom
* I'll never be my mom
* I can take your advice, but I HAVE to be myself
* Just b/c I'm thicker than I used to be doesn't make me a FAT A@@ so lay off sometimes
* You push me away when everytime I talk to you all you do is give me the negatives of what's going on.
Happy Mother's Day to all!!!
SKEEphis...you're in my prayers
Thanks for saying that, you really made me think.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY MOTHERS!!!!

that i'm too old to have and set in my way to have children;
that i don't won't her washing my clothes;

that i'm trying hard not be as picky as she is and as non-emotional as my father;
that i'm not interested in her soror's daughter cause she is ugly and i don't want to come right out and say that's the reason;

LOL! Professor, although her looks are... unfortunate, I'm sure she has a delightful personality. *smirk*

Happy Mother's Day Sorors, SFs, et. al. 
Enjoy your day!
Back to the topic:
I wish I would get my mother to understand that no matter how hard she tries, she cannot pull those guilt trips on a sista.

I wish I could get my mother to understand....
* that her actions taught me lessons beyond her wise words.
* that she was a major pain back in the day, but I'm thankful for every prayer she prayed, for every game of mine she attended, for every "you can do it" she ever gave me; (even for some of those undeserved hotwheel track whippings)
* she can stop quizzing my sisters; when it gets serious with somebody I'll holla;
* just how truly thankful I am that she is here to answer the phone when I call;
*P.A.M. -- you, indeed, are one of a kind. I love you
Happy Mothers Day to all the GC moms and those who take on the role for children not their own....

I can't get my mother to understand that I have to learn lessons on my own. Her telling me not to do certain things only pushes me to actually do it. And even though she says, "I told you so," I am so blessed that I have her to offer wise words. She's a phenomenal woman and I love her so much for everything!
Happy Mother's Day everyone!
