When my aunt died last week it really made me stop and think about a lot of things. We have one day a year when we honor the one person who probably has the greatest influence in our lives. As I talked to my cousin at the cemetery she was having a very hard time with her mom's death and it made me wonder, what do you do when your mom dies? She is always there for you, no matter what. Sometimes I don't even have to talk to her , but just knowing that I can, comforts me. So I think that we need to honor these great women all day every day. Although I don't believe that when a person passes from this life we will never see them or talk to them again, I like knowing that my mom is there. My mom has taught me so many life lessons, and when I was determined to learn things on my own she never once said I told you so. I love that woman. She could have and probably should have said something like I told you so, maybe even, you pinhead. But she never said anything except how can I help you now. So in honor of moms all over, but especially my own great mom thanks for all you do not just that one day a year but everyday. You are the greatest!
