I picked my Mom up and we went out for a great lunch at a local Mexican restaurant, Margaritas included :o) Then it was off to the movies. What did we see, Disney's Tangled. Why you might ask?
Since high school, I am the only one that will take my Mom to a Disney movie. It has become a nice mother-son bonding experience, and now that she lives here again, we have resumed our tradition.
While not movies I would pick now (used to take the kidlets to these types of movies, but that was quite a few years back), we always have fun, and frankly, they do a pretty good job these days. There are just enough references and jabs added that are at an adult level that you chuckle throughout the movie.
This is a tradition that I will happily continue for many years :o)
Small traditons like that create an enviroment to bond over and remain familiar with what makes a relationship special. I think that it is way cool that you and your Mom have the opportunity to bring back your tradition. (btw, I want to see 'Tangled' too!)
ReplyDeleteLove the entry, It is nice to have Mom and enjoy her company, won't always be so!
ReplyDeleteSo hold her near during this coming Happy New Year!!!
She'll always remember your "Disney bonding" and so will you. Happy New Year.
ReplyDeletesometimes the things i miss most about not having a 'real mom' is this kind of stuff- i think it's awesome that something so simple means so much to both of you, and i hope that someday when we live closer to tony's folks i can have special stuff like that with his parents.
ReplyDeletehappy new year!
