~Fall flowers for Mom~
~~~
Today Charles and I took some silk fall flowers and colorful leaves for Mom. I hadn't changed her flowers since my sister and I were out in the spring...
(Somehow summer slipped away)
Someone had added a bunch of beautiful Hibiscus flowers since we were there and since they still looked fresh and pretty I just added the fall colors to them!
(Mom would love them together anyway )
In January it will be 8 years since Mom left us and I can honestly say she has been in my thoughts every single day of all those years.
(at least not in this mortal world)
Don't wait until it's too late to say those words to her and to show your love in your actions!
I hope I expressed my love in words and deeds to my
dear mom....
What I would not give to have a hug from my mom one more time-and to see her sweet smile!
This statue stands near Mom's place. It's a comfort for me to see this when I go out there.

( "Ma-Ma" -Paul's grandmother and Brenda's great-grandmother)
They died together in a motorcycle accident after Mom passed away.
(Thankfully-in this mortal life- Mom was spared the heartache of losing those loved ones and also, Phil - Paul's brother)
So much sadness, visiting out there...Well... but really- there is no escaping it, anyway!
I guess the only way NOT to hurt is Not to love at all- and I wouldn't want that!

WOW - I think an angel sent us to each other. I do not have a good relationship with my mother - none of us do. Long story short - she left my daddy to see if the grass was greener - or to find herself, whatever. My youngest sister still lived at home and had just graduated high school. It has been over 10 years but is still a "hot mess" of a subject for any of us. I just wish.....
I am so sorry about your mom and I am happy that you had such a great relationship!
Hi,
Thanks for coming to read...
I'm sorry you have a bad relationship with your mother...none is ever perfect
I started this blog after Mom died-almost 8 years ago...Well, at first it was a journal just for myself. It's our story- just starting with the earliest memories (so you'd need to go back in archives to get it all in order)
I did love Mom very much. I found this writing of our life as a way of dealing with the grief. I didn't want it all to be lost (the memories)
We grew up very poor-and I wanted to get it all in, as I remembered it, from my earliest memories onward. Mostly it's written in a humorous way.
Oh! My mom had a long life-and a good one in a lot of ways. She lived just past her 94th birthday.
I hope you'll come again!
Junie
