Mothers Day......In memory

[june72]

I know everyone knows Sunday is Mothers Day. This will be my first one without my precious mom. If it wouldn't break my boys heart I would love to skip that day. I always called mommy every md morning and told her hmd and that I love you. Shewwwwwwww going to be so hard to get thru. Ok before I get all upset and cry, I will get to my point. I think it would be good to do a in memory for all our moms that have went on to be with the Lord.

This picture was taken on our last outing for mom. we took her and my step dad to the golden corral. This is the picture I took when she first realized we were there waiting on her. I drove her up there and had a time not telling her, but it was worth the wait. All of my sisters didn't make it but it was there loss, mommy loved it. Gosh I miss her.

Wonderful post! Thank you. I'm so sorry for your loss and hope you can remember all the good times.

This is my fourth Mother's Day without Mom, and it still hurts. I hate & dread it every year. All I want to do is stay in bed until it passes. I can't enjoy it with my boys anymore. (all grown). Also, my grandmother had 12 kids and lived to be 90. On her last Mother's Day, she waited to hear from all 12 before going to bed and dying in her sleep.

My mom always enjoyed Mother's Day. She knew she was loved. I miss her everyday of my life. So many times, I have picked up the phone to call her without thinking. They say it gets easier, but it hasn't for me, yet. She was 80 when she died.

Happy Mother's Day, Mom! (Billie Craigo)
Happy Mother's Day, Grandma! (Alma Richard)
I'm thinking of you both and looking forward to the day I see you both, again.
I love you both, dearly.

Five years for me since my mom passed. Happy Mother's Day mom :)! It has gotten easier for me, not that I don't miss my mom cause I do dearly. But my mom was 57 when she passed and sick and it's hard to see someone you love sick and dying .. and nothing can be done. So you have to out weigh the two .. life or death. Not that it's easy, but sometime the later of the two is better. I also have 2 small children and they make Mother's Day fun for me.

To (((Everyone))) who's mom's are passed .. and to (((Everyone))) who's aren't .. Happy Mother's Day :)

When my mother was a little girl, on Mother's Day, you wore a red carnation if you mother was alive and a white one if your mother had passed. It was considered a rememberence for her.

That must have been a good memory for you. Remember... you can always talk to your mother anytime you want. She may not answer, but she's there with you.

This is my first Mother's Day without my mother also. She was diagnosed with cancer the first week of March 2004. She passed away June 16, 2004. It all happened so quickly, we just couldn't believe it was true. :(

Put flowers in your church in memory of loved ones.

I'm so sorry for everyone's losses. Tomorrow will be tough, no doubt about it. I am praying for GOD to give US ALL strength to get thru it. Today was tough, shopping for mil's card and gift. I left the store crying, dh didn't know what to say, he was waiting in the van. So needless to say, I had to go back in and get what I needed. Was so hard, miss mom so much.

[Tasha405]

Oh man, what a sweet post. I cried just reading it. I can't even begin to imagine how hard holidays like this must be for those who lost their mothers, fathers and other close family members.

My heart goes out to all of you and I wish you all a Happy Mother's Day.

My friend just lost her mother about two weeks ago. My friend is only in her 20's and her mother was only in her 40's. Cancer took her life. It all happened so fast yet seemed so long. My friend is still taking it very hard.

Hugs to you all!!! ((((Hugs))))

This will be my second Mother's Day since my mom passed away. It's very sad, and time does seem to help, but there's always a void there. I live in another state and when we go to visit, it's difficult for me to go into the house. :(

That was my grandmother's name she passed in April 1998 also at a very young age, my mom's still here, but I wish my grandma was too!!! She was a very large part of my life so was my great grandma, aunt vic and grandfather, they've all passed and this is my first mother's day so it's really hard, not having the ones I loved most here to share it.

Although my 4 1/2 month old little man said ma ma this morning so it helped, but it still hurts. Sitting here crying, Logan is asleep and so is DH (he works second shift). :(

Did not get on the puter yesterday so I am doing it now. My mother died in Feb. 1986. I miss her all the time. She would be really mad at some of the choices that I have made. She would be thrilled at some of my children and how they turned out.

In memory of Glennys Maureen Cunningham. 1939-2000

My birth mother, though I hadn't seen her since about age 7, I was able to have phone contact with her the last 4 years of her life. She lived in Wales.

Miss you Mom............ :(

My mother that I posted on here told me how she felt when her mother died. She and her sister couldn't even go into the hospital room after their mother had a heart attack they were so broken up.

I was my mother's caretaker for nine years before she died so I was able to be there with her when she died. I got into bed with her the last night but couldn't sleep since she was breathing so hard. I slept on the recliner they brought in and my hubby was in the other recliner.

I was able to hold and kiss her and tell her that daddy was coming to take her to heaven with him. She had been a widow for 26 years and she missed him so. The last years was lost in dementia so I do not know how much she knew or didn't know. I had to remind her who I was. I greaved when she stopped recognizing me so I was a slow greaving process but just as hard when she died.

I was able to interact with her but on her terms. With dementia you have to enter their world and have what interaction you can with them. I told my hubby I still feel like I can go to the carehome and see her. He has been a real help to me this past week and he understands what I am going through. His father died last year in the same carehome. He works across from the home and we pass it everyday so it can be hard.

My siblings all live out of town so they don't have to be as close as we were but it is still hard for them I'm sure.

Huggs to all who are having their first Mother's Day without their mothers.

Janelle, I am so sorry for the loss of your Mom. You and your family will be in our prayers.
