So sorry, Suzi.

It's hard, Suzi. I'm sorry. How long has your mother been gone?
My dad died 14 years ago and I still mist up when I think about him, which is pretty much every day. But it's a good kind of misty, you know? Let yourself feel it. You'll always want your mommy.

I'm so sorry, Suzi.
I'm a 43 year old woman who wants her mommy.
There is NOTHING wrong with that.

Oh Suzi. I'm so sorry. My mom's 70th was recently and it hit me hard.
It's a peculiar and unpredictable aspect of grief that a kind word can tear the foundations out from under you.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
She died 2 years ago, last June. I still have incredibly vivid dream about her and when I wake up I have to remind myself that she is gone. Most days are the good misty remembrances.
Brenda, you hit it on the nose. When it was just the three of us remembering, it was ok. Having my cousin, who I adore, reach out just hit me in the gut.
On the other hand, today is NOT my 24th wedding anniversary. WOOOT!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Suzi, I'm sorry that you are feeling sad about your mom...but it's wonderful that you loved her so much you still feel her loss, you know? But, even though I didn't know her, I think she would be proud of you as a person, a woman and a mother.
I think I phrased that badly. a
Connie, that's ridiculous. Thanksgiving is a huge family holiday for most, and it's in almost 2 weeks. To not let people know WAY ahead of time if they will have it off is..cruel and inefficient.
