We made small talk for a few moments and then her asked her if I was a smart child. Without hesitation she replied: Oh yes, Michele knew everything, sometimes she still thinks she does. <BR/><BR/>I love my mother very much - but she is the reason that I still roll my eyes. <BR/><BR/>All mothers and daughters go through this stage. Trust me, I know everything.
