Like me, I'm sure you may have bought many cards for Mother's Day and Father's Day in days gone by. Until I was almost 40, I had four grandparents, my mom and dad. One by one they passed away until the last one was gone - my mother in December 2006. I miss my mother this Mother's Day.
My mother always planned things well. The day after her funeral, the whole family was still together, and we celebrated a wedding when James (my oldest son) and Regan were married at Church of the Mediator in Meridian. Now James and Regan have made me a grandmother again. I can see my mother smiling. The baby's name is Peyton (in video below).
Love & Prayers,
Ouida

Thank you for sharing a little of your family on this Mothers Day weekend. I read your post as a universal tribute honoring mothers everywhere. What you wrote is a warm, poignant reminder of the importance of mothers.
We are all in that zone where those of us with living mothers may suddenly be without them tomorrow. And, this same zone is where there is melancholia for those whose mothers are no longer with us.
I think I speak for the entire MHS, class of '58 when I tell you of my (our) appreciation of your post.
