This is the first time I spend Mother's Day without my Mom....
I'm grateful that little M (Emma) is being dedicated this Sunday at her church. It kind of softens the day a little for me.
My mom was a strong women of God. She is probably closest in resemlance of character to Naomi in the bible. Quiet out front but very much in prayer and determination in the background. She loved to shop....she loved clothes, shoes, jewelry, comforters, linens...
Every Saturday, she would pull out a new comforter for her bed. She probably bought one a month. I miss her so...
Mothers are to be loved and cherished... I had the privilege of taking care of her in our home for 12 years. Last night Harold had a dream about her. I've not experienced that yet. I'm not much of a dreamer, although I've asked God to allow me to dream about her. I'd like to know what she is doing. I think He will grant me this request in time.
"Mom, I will always love you! I miss your voice...I still hear it sometimes. You were such a blessing to me, I hope I was to you as well". Happy Mother's Day!
To you, all my dear friends, cherish your mom! One day you won't have her.....
I miss her too. A lot.
