“What about you?” I asked, not wanting to commit either way yet. She took a second to think.
“I think it’s a you decision. I’ll support you either way, though you’ll have to change yourself while I’m not around.” She said. I was both frustrated and relieved at her answer. It was frustrating to not be pushed one way or the other, thus eliminating the choice from my mind but also it is always nice to hear a general I’ll support you in any context. My logic and my desires battled in my head, but that fight almost always went one way. This time was no exception.
“I’ll try,” I said, my voice sounding more confident then I actually was. Mommy smiled at me. I wondered if she was expecting this decision.
