I'm with you...even though it's been seven years, this is still a difficult day for me.

Sometimes, even today, I have moments when I have to remind myself that they're actually gone. It's not as sad anymore, but just an empty space in my view of the universe.

Your post makes me wish I had a better relationship with my mom. I hope your day has far more laughter than sadness.

It has been a good day today! I used to chide those who spoke negatively of their mothers with such histrionic statements as "There will come a day when you'll wish you spent the time to stay in touch with your mom. Mine's no longer here...etc,etc" But I realized I was just displacing some of my own anger at losing my mom onto other people

This made me misty.

I called my mom earlier. She's 78 but mostly doing great. Thinking about the time when she'll not longer be with us is making me cry.

Oh, Pager, I didn't mean to make you sad! I'm glad you've got a good relationship with Pagermom. All we can do is live in the "now" and enjoy everything about them while they're here with us. *hugs*

XOXO
I will.

I was thinking especially of you and yours today after all you all have been through recently. I hope y'all are doing OK today. :)

What a nice tribute. :o)

Thank you! Each year gets a little easier - less sadness with time though the empty place never goes away but then I guess it really shouldn't if they were a big influence on us.
