I should give my mother a hug sometime soon

[aesmael]

She has been offering me cast-off clothes from my sisters and other family members. And she suggested I might want to have my hair done red again for her wedding, as she liked that colour (am going to). And today, she was offering me kitten for holding and suggested he might spend time with his uncle, which she corrected right after to aunt.

I don't make any request of pronouns as a rule, and tend to prefer a bit of fluidity actually, so perhaps it is even more of a thing that she would call me so without any request to do so. It meant a lot to me, anyway, even if I am not entirely comfortable with female pronouning.

And the hug... we find those awkward in this family too, they happen so seldom. I'll try and manage to express my appreciation.
