Spending time with my MOM

Just wanted to write about the time the girls & I had with my mom today. We had such a wonderful time together, I am feel so blessed. We didn't do anything extraordinary... but we met at a park & ride & then went to the store & then had lunch. The girls had so much fun being with their Grandma & their mom. You know when we were younger many of us took so much for granted & it didn't occur to us that our loved ones have our best interest at heart. I think back & think what a rebellious teen I was & how I didn't want to spend time with my mother at all.... Or how about this "she doesn't understand me and she never will" LOL.... Well that was never true it is just a phase that so many teens go through in thinking parents don't know a thing & they were never the same age. My mother is such a pleasure to be around & she gets me more than anyone that I know. It never fails that we share laugh after laugh together.... I honor her everyday & I can't tell you how grateful I am to have her in my life. I have many friends who have lost their mother or father & the way they have said if only I had one more minute with them. I am not going to have any regrets about the time that my mother & I spent, of course there will be the longing to spend more time with her. What I am saying is like something my Aunt Marguerite lived by is cherishing every moment & leaving nothing unsaid or undone. My day was wonderful with my beautiful , strong, hilarious, loving, & a woman of God mother. I love you mom!
