I think I can pretty safely say "I am my mother's daughter" - but I don't know if the same is true about my Sofia. I love anything old and decrepit - Sofia loves anything new and shiny. I like to live in old houses with history, Sofia wants to live in a modern house filled with contemporary furniture and new tiles. I like old textiles, pottery and dishes -
Sofia wants new sets of dinnerware from Ikea. On holiday, I want to spend time at the museums or in the old gardens, Sofia would rather find a trendy place to shop. Oh well - as I continue to walk into the past, Sofia waltz's into the future....hopefully holding my hand!
I am a New York Times bestselling author working on a new book about mother-daughter relationships and thought you might want to contribute. Please visit my page for details about submitting stories for Mom's Little Angel.
