Midweek Blues ~ blue flowers for Mom

On Monday my husband and I took  flowers out for Mom.

It was a rainy and gloomy day, so it was a quick visit, but I wanted to go since

I had last been there just before Christmas. I was dismayed and saddened to find that her flowers which I had taken  then had been removed.

This place removes flowers if they become faded or blown out of the one vase that's allowed!

(the vase goes down inside the  flat monument when not in use, leaving just the flat and bare plaque!  It just made me sad to see that)

I hope to be able to get out more often  to insure this not happening again.

Still miss you, my sweet mom!

Love,

Junie

Ma-Ma had more little pink flowers than she knew what to do with! ;)

  June Kellum ‎:) Yes- it truly is! Joy's little Chey and our baby, Alli were very close to each other and spent a lot of time together for the first few years of their lives- and spent a lot of happy times together at my house with my mom-their great grandmother! She adored those babies-as they did her! :) Good memories for both Joy and me!

Mom's Christmas flowers-2011

The month of December is 'getting on with it,' and I'm falling behind with everything - even more so than usual! 

  I decided I needed to get Mom's Christmas flowers out  today, before time completely got away from me!  Charles was happy and willing to take me, and we had an enjoyable time together, though, of course, it was shadowed with some sadness.  Still, I felt better, having brightened that little spot up for this holiday!

~Love and miss my Mom~

~Flowers for Mom~

Today my sis and I took  some yellow flowers out for Mom!

You can see on the marker that she's been gone now for a long time, but Joy and I agree that some days it still seems so recent...that day in January, 2003 when she had to leave us!

I can close my eyes and let my 'Mom' memories come and it's almost like having her here with me again!

I'm glad I can still feel her here with me!

  I hope it never ends.

January 6 ~ a date of importance~ ( re-post from Junie's Place)

~~~

January 6, 1909 was the date my mom was born.

 This month on the 27th will be 8 years since she left us.

January will always be a sad time for me.  Yesterday's gloomy, gray skies didn't help  at all to lift my spirits!

Charles and I went out for a few minutes yesterday. The flowers that my daughter and I had taken early in Dec were still nice... so I just added some holly.

 Always with love,

Junie

Mom's Christmas flowers

 (post from Junie's Place-Dec 6, 2010)

~~~

Today my daughter, Tina, and I took flowers for our Ma-Ma.  It's always a bittersweet event-bringing Mom flowers but I always will-as long as I'm able.

  Joy, my sister, was unable to come with us because of a medical appointment with her husband. 

Tina and I also did quite a bit of shopping today. I appreciated her taking me out because I really do not like driving a lot.  We had a fun day Christmas shopping -and just being together for a few hours! Oh-and we had both breakfast and lunch out-lol- We really made a day of it!  :)

Here we are at home and later with Mom's flowers.

Love,

Junie

Fall Flowers for Mom~ (From Junie's Place)

~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.

In case any of you have doubts of who the greatest love is, in your life, take a lesson from me...You'll have no greater love than your mom.

(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.

  

This picture
(below)shows the spot where my nephew and grand niece  lie...so near to Mom.

( "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!

Junie
