Mom

This blog post is dedicated to my adopted mom, Justin Mom (because I don't know her first name). She adopted me at the ripe age of 27 and we've been so happy together ever since.  Mom and I sat down for an interview. 

Mom and Julie (Justin's GF). LOVE Mom!

My brother Justin, he's the best!

·        Me: What was it like adopting a 27 year old intelligent, beautiful, amazing crossfitter?

·        Mom: Who?

·        Me: MOM! Me!!!!

·        Mom: Oh yes. Interestingly I have only met you once and when we did meet you told me you thought I would look way older. 

·        Me: Perhaps I thought you should be older because I am 27 and my brothers are 30-something and 20-something, and you're only 40 something. Back to my earlier question, what is it like to have been blessed with me in the family?

·        Mom: I imagine you’re a great influence on Justin, other than that I still am not too sure who you are.

·        Me: Funny you should say that. What’s your favorite food? Is it fried Oreos? Buff chicken salad from Pat’s?

·        Mom: I’ve never had Pat’s buff chicken salad.

·        Me: You should try it, it’s AMAZING. Do you enjoy a good pruppet show?

·        Mom: What’s a pruppet show?

·        Me: Nothing, nevermind. Let’s talk about me again. Did you cry at my wedding?

·        Mom: I was not at your wedding

·        Me: WHAT???? You’re my mother, I thought you were there watching me.

·        Mom: I’m sorry, I wasn’t there.

·        Me: OK, forgiven. Is it difficult to handle that you and I are responsible for making Justin and Joey, my brothers and your sons, responsible, respectful men?

·        Mom: I think we have done a great job so far. Both of them made questionable decisions at one point with clothing choices and facial and hair styles, however I feel like they are on the right track now

·        Me: thanks to me mainly, I tell them when they look like Vinnie and Pauly from you know where?

·        Mom: No, where?

·        Me: Nevermind… do you think Justin, my favorite brother, will stop eating so much?

·        Mom: No and now I am going to have to cook for him again when I move in.

·        Me: Don’t let him get chubby again, that was a rough time in our lives as a family. What is your favorite memory of me as a child?

·        Mom: That’s a tough question…

·        Me: How so?

·        Mom: Mainly because I wasn’t there for your childhood. Although I did enjoy meeting you for the first time 6 weeks ago.

·        Me: Me too… that was a special time. Well mom, this was a nice interview. Thank you for donating your time to my readers. I’ll be home a little late tonight, I can’t wait for whatever you’re making for dinner.
