I hate that you lost your mom at such a young age. Life is just not fair. She definitely left her mark on you, though. I’m sure she would be so proud of the person you have become. <br /><br />Mother’s Day is such a tough holiday for many. I think of those who have lost a mom or are struggling with infertility and my heart really goes out to them.

I loved getting to know her a little through this post (and the great pictures!) and delighted in seeing a a glimpse of resemblance between the two of you -- perhaps the eyes or the smile? Or simply the loving spirit. I share your ambivalence about Mother's Day -- it causes me to grieve for my mother -- gone for 38 years -- and over my childlessness and the casual way people wish one a "Happy Mother's Day." But a friend told me yesterday "But you ARE a mother -- to four lovely cats!" and when I read your post, I remembered that the day is really all about celebration, about what was as well as what is. Thank you!!!<br />Dr. Kathy McCoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02903015507894951725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-16495919928134552302018-05-13T18:26:08.299-04:002018-05-13T18:26:08.299-04:00I love seeing the photos of your Mom, and I am sor...I love seeing the photos of your Mom, and I am sorry to hear you lost your Mom so early. I think that must be very hard and hard to get past too because you didn't have her for so many years. You are quite the poet too. It may not be the poem of century but I think it is pretty good considering how old you must have been when you wrote it. Hope you had a happy day, not too sad of one.

And yes, you were very lucky to have such a mother (who, I can see, had great taste: a Vermeer print in the LR and that was way before any one knew any thing about Vermeer -- your mother must have had great faith in her own connoisseurship). <br /><br />I know what David is talking about.

Reality sets in, but often I feel the need to ask her something. Especially since the rest of the family is mentally away.<br /><br />:-) My Mom had such a pearl necklace, too.
