I wanted to write this Blog on Easter. Wow, a month ago. I was under the weather. The first time in 50 years that Al and I did not spend Easter together. Now it is Spring and Mother's Day. Thanks to our two adopted sons, I am a Mother. Mother's Day always brings some sadness to me. I guess because I no longer have my wonderful Mom, also a Mother-in-law, who was like a Mom to me, is gone and a Sister, who I desperately miss, is no longer with us. On the other hand, I have some wonderful memories of my Mother, Mother-in-law, Sister an Aunt who was like a second Mother to me and a Granny who I spent many hours with. If there would be one thought that I could leave my children, it would be. Enjoy every day as their Mother has. I have been very lucky to have found the right husband for me. We share every day together, happily. So lucky to have our health. We can walk and talk, that's why we are still able to travel. When we leave our children in Sept. and do not return for almost a year, it's a long year. So we must make our quality time count when we are North for a month. And, we try to. Also, we have two great grandsons. They are now young men. I regret not being able to have seen them grow. I am very lucky to have such wonderful nieces and nephews. Who all keep in touch. Especially one nephew, who is like a third son. Very fortunate to have a daughter-in-law and an almost daughter -in-law who are both terrific gals. They are truly like daughters to us. Looking back on my Motherhood, I do have some regrets. You always wish you could do it again and make it perfect. Nothing is ever perfect. But, being a Mother to our boys made Motherhood perfect to me. To all my relatives and friends, I will close by saying, Happy Mother's Day and Enjoy your day.
