19 years ago today my mother passed away. Today I celebrate motherhood, Knowing full well what a responsibility it is to mother children and the impact we have on our kids. I am not perfect, I screw them up mostly. I understand now, things my mother said about life. I didnt understand or believe her then because I didnt have enough experience to be able to do that. If she were alive today, and I was able to tell her something it would be I love you, you have beautiful grand kids and great grand kids. We all love each other very much and thank you for teaching me how to be a mother. Not a day goes by that I dont miss her. Miss her touch, smile, laugh, and her smell as she would insist on that kiss before bed. Love is good. It lasts. It cannot be stripped away when death departs us from people we love. It is temporary. Because LOVE is eternal. As I watch Maddie play soccer today Ill celebrate my chance to be present. Ill look at the girls faces and inscribe their sweet expressions into my brain. Gifts from God.
