I didn’t forget. I didn’t blog it. I shared it on Facebook, but I didn’t write about it. What could that be? Well, my mom has been gone for over 2 years now. 2 years and 4 months and a handful of days. The point is that I missed posting about it when it happened. Life has been moving pretty fast since I got my job at Atlanticus. It really is the best job I have ever had and I had just started. I am not making excuses because there is no excuse. I am offering a reason.
I still miss her today as much as I ever have. I still miss my father the same way. But this is about my mother. I had her picture come up on my phone in one of the widgets today. It was from the cruise to the Bahamas. That was her first trip out of the country. She only flew once. She ended up cruising with us three times.
I am very blessed to have had my mom until my 40’s. Some don’t get that blessing. She was 81 years old at the time of her death. I relive that day in my head from time to time. I know that may not be healthy, but it’s real.
She would have loved my niece’s wedding. I know that she was there in spirit.
I love you, Mom. I miss you, Mom. that is all.
