My mom....


I am blogging again after last week and all that we did after my dads death. Boy do I miss him. But great things have come about. My mother is showing her strength that I always knew that she had. But it went away right after my dad left us, she said what "Am I going to do without him". I guess I wasn't expecting her to say that, since she was so independent of him. She works at 80, she takes trips to my sisters, and has always been her own person. So that statement surprised me, but it reassured me that she did love him. I guess I did know she loved him but that made me feel wonderful inside. She is so damn strong! She is an inspiration to me. I have been calling her everyday and seeing her. Today was the first day I didn't see her since my dad died. I will be around her much more. After all she is 80 and I don't want to feel like I didn't see her enough because I feel that way about my dad now. I was looking at pictures of her, with her granddaughters last week and she has such a sad face. It made me cry, her partner of 63 years is gone and that must be just hell. Mom I love you. I'm glad you have all your family to keep you happy. I'm glad I have two of your special babies that you love so much and they make you smile.
