One word. Two letters. Just a single syllable. That’s all it takes to evoke so many emotions in us. No matter how many people you know, none of them can take the place of your mother. Not only is she our favourite companion, she is also our partner-in-crime. She is someone with whom we absolutely love to hang out.
Ma.
Here are 15 signs that scream out that our mother is our best friend:
1. She knows all our secrets
From crushes to favourite high school teachers, she knows every tiniest detail there ever has been about us and our lives. From studies to boyfriends, we don’t hesitate to discuss anything with her.
2. She is our favourite shopping partner
Shopping without her would be such a drab experience. Not only does she get us the best bargains, she also knows exactly what looks good on us, and therefore, gives great fashion advice.
