I'd like to take a moment to wish my mother a very special Mother's Day.
Things haven't always been easy for her. She lost her mother at the tender age of 5, then lost her father when she was 16. She is the only one left out of 6 siblings. She lost my father 19 years ago, a very special companion some years later and a daughter (my only sister), almost 4 years ago.
This woman has known heartache, but through it all she remains
wonderful, strong, independent, loving, nurturing and giving.
Happy Mother's Day Mom
I love you.
Keep Smiling

I just read this & am crying for her & for me. I just lost my husband of 39 years & we are just before the age of 60. I lost my parents also several years ago. I can't imagine what she has had to go through. Altho it isn't Mother's Day specifically, plz celebrate with each other.
