today me and my mom went into the attic to find baby pictures of me. once we found it (after trying to dig our way there lol) she pulls out this box ive never seen before. she said that its her NSYNC box.
now for context, she told me she didnt have any pictures or anything from that concert. so i was surprised when she pulled out a shirt with NSYNC on the front with glitter and clearly handmade. her and her (now deceased) friend made matching ones, and on the back (in glitter) was justin right in the middle- because hes her favorite still to this day- and the other 4 right around it. a glitter glued bandana and arm band, and confetti from the floor. 3 disposable camera notches and a letter from her friend.
But theres something so beautiful about the way she was telling me about it and how she was just like me once fangirling about her favorite band and making her own t-shirts and putting her silly guys on it. something so beautiful about being like your mom even in her youth and doing the same things she did but in your own way. i love my mom
