Remembering...

This month marks three years since my Mom passed away~ I know I posted about this last year, but I just can't help but think about her this time of year. I will make this one brief - I grow more and more appreciative each year for having had such a wonderful mother. I think that it is a rare thing to have the kind of mom that I had. She was such a selfless, sweet, kind and generous person. I miss her so much! Being a mom has helped me to realize just how great she was! I am in awe of the way she mothered. Our house was a home because of her. We all knew we were loved and enjoyed being near her more than anything! I love you Mom!!! :)

She was sweet - and has influenced my life just from the little I knew personally and the things you have shared with me. I hope you are feeling peace today. I wish I could ease your pain and your dad's. Please tell him we are thinking of him too on this day.

Love your posts about your mom. It makes me think of what my kids will remember about me and reminds me of what I can do to be better. You're awesome Les! How lucky your kid are!

I'm sure she's so proud of you. And I love having such great 'mom' examples like you to learn from. I still think that there is some secret that some of you great moms know but aren't giving up!
