Grateful for my mom via /r/gratitude

It sounds so simple, but this is a huge step for me to even admit…I am so glad I finally approached my mom about fixing our relationship. We’ve had a very strained relationship my entire life due to a lot of bad decisions she made raising me, but after much therapy and healing myself, I’m ready to forgive, understand and work on things with her. I’m so grateful she was receptive, it feels good to have a mom again, especially since I’m about to go thru another divorce and am so grateful to have her in my life again.
