Moving away from home for the first time evokes many emotions—there’s fear of whether you’ll like your roommate and hallmates, the difficulty of classes, and somehow trying to find your way around campus. As you settle in and find your comfort zone, it’s the little things you miss the most about living at home—specifically, your mom.
Waking You Up
My mom always knocked on my door and yelled to make sure I was awake. This would definitely be helpful to get up for my early classes.
Late Night Talks
No matter the topic, you can always go to your mom and feel comforted just by letting her know what’s going on in your life—even if it was midnight.
Advice
Somehow, moms always know best. She knows how to calm you down, how to put things into perspective, and helps to make you realize what is truly important.
Shopping Trips
Who doesn’t love a girls day?
Dinner Dates
Nothing beats being able to unwind and have a nice dinner at your favorite restaurant with your mom.
Home Cooked Meals
It was always taken for granted that you would come home to a delicious home cooked meal everyday.
Big Hugs
Let’s be real, there is no hug like a hug from your mom.
