Quotable Mondays

For some moments in life there are no words. 

~David Seltzer, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory

Nine years ago today I lost my Mom to cancer.  I can relive that day in my head.  I remember laying on my bed just stunned, not crying, not knowing how to feel.  I remember friends coming to the house with food and hugs.  I never cried then.  I'm not sure I cried much until the funeral. 

It is true....there are moments in life there are no words to help, explain or heal.  I will say time does help but to be honest I still miss her.  How can I not.....she was my Mother.

As always on this date I ask you to hug your Mom today, tell her you love her and if those words are tough to get out just contact her, honor her in some way today.  Do this in memory of my Mother and to help heal the ache in my heart today.

For those of you that have let me"borrow" me your Mom I thank you.  Sometimes its just nice to have a Mom ask you how you are doing.
