Project 365 Day 117 Being a mother is learning about strengths you didn’t know you had, and dealing with fears you didn’t know existed. ~Linda Wooten When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts. A mother always has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child. ~Sophia Loren Hundreds of dewdrops to greet the dawn, Hundreds of bees in the purple clover, Hundreds of butterflies on the lawn, But only one mother the wide world over. ~George Cooper I love this picture of the two of us. It was taken when my life was whole. If I only knew then what I know now, I would have hugged you a little tighter. If I only knew then what I know now, I would have kissed your face a thousand more times. If I only knew then what I know now, I would have captured every moment on video so I would never lose the sound of your voice. If I only knew then what I know now, I would have captured every moment on video so I would never lose sight of the way your smile light up the room. If I only knew then what I know now, I would have captured every moment on video so I would never lose the sound of your laughter. I had a long conversation with one of our bus drivers today. She has been a bereaved mother for five years now. We shared so many common thoughts and feelings. We shared so many tears. The sadness she said, really never goes away. The constant pain from missing a son really never goes away. The waking up every day with the knowledge that today will be yet one more day we will never see or touch our child really never goes away. But perhaps the saddest reality of our situation is that we would have to forget so many things about you before the pain could go away. We would have to forget the sound of your voice. We would have to forget the sight of your smile. We would have to forget the sound of your laughter. The truth of the matter is, I dont ever want to forget one thing about you, instead I will gladly live with the pain.
