Do you ever miss your mom?

I miss mine, she has been gone for 8 years.  Sometimes I can go for weeks, and not think about her, but then I will see something, do something, be somewhere and she comes to mind.  Last night I babysat my grandaughter Adrian.  And I thought about how disappointed my mother was that my sister Rhonda, and I did not have girls.  One year, when my friend Lionel and his girls were staying with me, she absolutely spoiled his girls at Christmas, they had twice as many presents as my boys did.  The boys didn’t mind, thank goodness.  I was playing with Addy May this morning, and thought, oh little girl, how your great-grandmother would have loved you.  She loved me. I miss her.
