the first thing my mother said when i was born was "he has blue eyes." she had blue eyes. i get sad whenever i think that she was already searching for something we had in common from the moment she saw me, even if i was her first born. fun fact- all babies have blue eyes at birth. mine ended up turning color. the first thing she thought we had in common was gone. little did my mom know that we had something more in common.

when i was a kid, my grandfather told me that my mom had manic depression. one day my mom would tease and tickle me until i almost peed myself from laughter. and others, she would scream at me for no reason at all. her outbursts were horrifying and i was so tired of taking them personally. now i know it wasn't my fault. so typical, i had mommy issues. along with undiagnosed bioplar disorder.
