I did my nails the other day – hand painting dark grey on a set of white acrylic tips. Love the look of it but the longer nails are a leetle obnoxious to type with as my talons tap against the rows above my fingers. Ever run into that problem? I get by and it’s not terrible but I’m glad I’m not a stenographer.

Since Mother’s Day is coming up I’ve been wondering how much of my own personality has been influenced by my mom’s. Am I my own mothers daughter? If not how has her example affected my life and values?  What of that of my girlfriends?

So I’ve decided this month to write about the ways in which my mother and other mother’s out there have shaped their daughters lives. Feel free to share your own examples with me here in the comments or email me.

Are we our mothers daughters? From fashion to beauty, work to play, our sexuality to body image lets take a look at the lessons our mother’s have lovingly shared with us.

I am normally a good girl about asking for his time but I actually though this might be enjoyable for him.

Wrong.

Oh well…lesson learned.
