How old..?
How old do I have to be before I stop feeling like a child around my parents?  At age 35 I still allow them to make me feel like I am a twelve year old who has done something wrong.  Last week my husband and I went on vacation.  We actually traded houses with my parents and they came down here to watch the children.  The entire time I was in my mother's house, I had this fear that I was going to mess something up.  I actually bleached a towel and I was like a scared child when I called my mother to let her know what happened.  I am an adult!  I am the mother of two, I have been married for almost 11 years and I own my own home.  How is it that in one fail swoop of a sentence (or even a word) my mother can make me feel so small and insignificant.  I know, I know these are my issues but my goodness how old will I have to be before I get past them?
