The Love Between mothers & daughters

Having a dear Mama, three daughters of my own, and their each having daughters now also, this special bond is near and dear to my heart.

When going through the pictures I had taken this weekend, I came across these of Michelle and Ava. Such a sweet Mommy and baby girl!

This is my favorite ^

"Gradually I began to realise that she liked me,

that she had no option to liking me, and that

unless I took great pains to alienate her she

would go on liking me, for a couple of years at

least. It was very pleasant to receive such

uncritical love, because it left me free to bestow

love; my kisses were met by small warm rubbery

unrejecting cheeks and soft dovey mumblings

of delight."

~Margaret Drabble~

from "The Millstone"

"I have so much I can teach

her and pull out of her. I

would say you might

encounter defeats but you

must never be defeated. I

would teach her to love a

lot. Laugh a lot at the

silliest things and be very

serious. I would teach her

to love life, I could do that."
