"Hey mom"
"Hi sweetheart"
"Can I talk to you for a minute?"
"Sure. What's on your mind?"
"Mom, I know that in the past I've been shall we say very challenging. I know that we've had our arguments in the past and I know that I must have been a disappointment to you at times"
"No Cheyenne. You were never a disappointment to me. It's true I didn't always like your behavior and some of the choices you've made but the fact remains that I have always and I will always love you. You're my daughter and nothing's going to change my love for you"
"Even when you would get mad at me?"
"Honey I got mad at you BECAUSE I love you. I got mad at you sometimes to keep you safe… to wake you up"
"Yesterday I almost got mad at Elizabeth… she had an ear infection and she was so cranky. I was tired and stressed and I actually had to get Van to watch her for a little while. I knew if I didn't I would get mad at her and…"
"Cheyenne, that's understandable. You're still a teenager yourself"
"Anyway mom what I wanted to say is you're not only my mother, you're my best friend. Even though I went and did so many stupid things you stood by me. You supported me though everything including pregnancy and everything else"
"Cheyenne, not everything is easy when it comes to being a parent. Sometimes it's downright hard. I remember one time I had an argument with your brother and he thought I hated him. Now I don't hate him at all. I love him. But when you become a parent you don't always sign up for easy street"
"Isn't that the truth"
"But let me tell you something… there is nothing in life that is more rewarding then being a parent"
"But mom what if I make a mistake?"
"Guess what sweetheart. You're going to make many of them. Nobody plans to but it happens. The good news is you'll learn and grow and I'll always be here"
"Mom?"
"Yeah baby"
"I love you"
"I love you too Cheyenne. I always have and I always will"
