I miss her every day ...
"One of the final challenges for human beings is to get old with as much verve and gumption as possible. Old parents who keep on being interested in life give a subtle kind of sustenance to their children; they are givers of hope and affirmers of life."

Your mother was a beautiful woman!

ReplyDeleteYour Mom looks like a catbird. I bet she was a lot of fun. We lost our Mom two years ago. You do miss them a lot. Welcome to the blogging world. Jan is one of my best blog buddies.
ReplyDeleteShe looks like a wonderful woman! I think you will always miss her, that's just how it goes. But hopefully the pain from the loss will lessen over over time.
