Today’s my mother’s birthday.
Mom is, of course, my polar opposite on most thing; I suspect if she hadn’t been married with three kids in 1968, she might very well have been a hippie. She certainly gives off that vibe today. I still don’t think she tells any of her friends that her oldest son is a conservative talk show host.
But happy birthday, Mom!
Happy birthday Mitch’s mom!
Opposites or not on politics…I think he turned out pretty well, and that must be in some measure because of his folks. You can tell a lot about a son as a reflection of his mother; conventional wisdom says that sons are always closer to their moms, and daughters are to fathers. I would like to think that the reason Mitch is able to tolerate my difference in views might be just a little bit because he accepted that his views were different from yours first.
You never know; it’s not too late yet. You might still convert him to YOUR views! Just don’t be too disappointed if you don’t, LOL. I’ll keep my fingers crossed….
Happy birthday, Mitch’s mom! Looks like Mitch’s adolescent rebellion phase is still going on. Good luck with that!
Mitch’s adolescent rebellion phase is still going on.
Perhaps.
Although I found out not all that many years ago that all four of my grandparents were Republicans. It’s actually Mom and Dad’s adolescent rebellions that are going on…
Dad too??????????
