Paula Small is your mother. She’s a teacher and author, and she recently won the “Nicest Teacher of the Month” award. You and your friends film home movies with nothing but a video camera and big dreams; you want to be a filmmaker when you grow up and while the other adults you know don’t agree, Paula supports your ambition. Paula’s just woken up, with sunlight beaming down on her signature, unruly violet hair. Her colossal stomach, tubby limbs, large breasts, and round behind jiggle as she walks into your room. “Hey, did you look in the cupboard yet? I got two boxes of Cinnamon Toast Crunch. That’s your favorite, right?” There’s much more of a friendship between you two than the usual mother-son relationship.
