mango made me cry

i recently sent off mother's day cards to all the moms i know and love: Mango, my sisters and Mama J...

My phone rang on my way to work, right as I was going to take a left onto North Highland Avenue. I was super annoyed. Mostly because I hate talking on the phone in the morning because I'm on my way to work and also because I was digging in my no-interior pocket purse and couldn't find my stupid phone. I finally found it but missed the call. I saw that it was my mom. I got more annoyed because she knows I hate talking on the phone in the morning. I was REALLY annoyed, but I called her back. Before I could say anything she says:

"HIYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! THANK YOU FOR MY CARD! It matches the flowers in the dining room. I'm going to put all my Mother's Day cards out today. I keep all of them! One day you'll see and know that I never threw away my Mother's Day cards! Thank you for mine. It's very pretty! I love you!"

I started to cry. Kinda like I am right now.

I can't believe I was so annoyed by her call when all she wanted to do was thank me and tell me she loved me. I got mad at myself. She didn't want to chat for hours. That is all she wanted to do and I was ready to be like "why are you calling me". I am such an asshole sometimes. I told her it was no problem and wished I could be there with her and then she says "well, you are probably on your way to work, so have a good day. I love you! Bye!"

I love you too, Mango. I love you too.
