My mum and I text each other randomly, pointless little things really, not full conversations but just regular back and forth, sharing what we're doing or a random thought. I know a few friends do similar with their mums.
I'm a mum of boys, and I wonder if it's the little things like this I perhaps won't get? I don't want my kids to be glued to me my whole life, but it'd be nice to remain close. They are currently very little and in the centre of their entire universe so the thought of them one day being like my husband and barely communicating with their mum makes me a bit weepy!
