I have so many "ordinary" memories -- watching her make pies, watching her sew (years before TV!), seeing her almost spit in exasperation when basting the turkey every hour and worrying about the thing's getting too brown -- just a few. She was hard-working and highly respected. Many memories to smile over, and some not.... We tend to remember how moms shape us.

I wish we knew to ask all these questions, both frivolous and serious while they were still here.

My mother's birthday is the 12th and she's been gone from us for four years. We were so lucky to have her 20 years longer than our father. My birthday is today and I always felt extra special to share our birthdays as one of her six children. I also have a picture of my parents close by to my stitching area when they were first married. It's nice to see them young and happy way before life took it's toll on them. Sorry to ramble on - but you touched me today.

Sad memories of passing over (you do realise there is one huge party with them all and Stewey hoovering up the spilt bits and yes, sneaky hand out treats from the family), but the more wonderful and fun memories outweigh all.

You never stop missing them (2 and 4 legged family) but it does bring some peace to know where they are and will be waiting. Be kind to yourself and be thankful for your wonderful parents that had wonderful you! They are with you everyday.

Your Mom<br />was a gifted lady and an insightful one in the choice of her<br />needlepoint subject... the girl READING ... a legacy she also<br />left to her little girl. No question, Stewey is surrounded by<br />attention and treats. May this week rest gently upon you, dear one.<br /><br /> Heritage Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11815336926966002348noreply@blogger.com
