Hugs and Prayers <<<<< Dearest Randibear >>>>>,
Her Momma died one year ago today, it is difficult to lose a parent, and I am not sure we ever get over the loss of our Moms.
I know some of how she feels,as May 10th is the first year anniversary of My Moms death.
I seem to remember someone else had this happen last spring too.
Please send prayers and comforting tho'ts winging Creators way, for Randibear,
and any others that you know of,experiencing the first anniversary of a loved ones death.
'Drew, a young man that works at one of our local beauty suply stores comes to my mind too.
He lost his grandma [who raised him, after his folks were killed in a car accident] about this time last year. And he is bravely battling throat cancer w/o any family near.
Its jus' Silvrwolfy thinking of Lyme-rs and otehrs going thru a sad time right now.

How very thoughtful of you to bring this to our attention, Silverwolf.
What an awful time for a person to not be able to be with their mother.
Know I will be praying for you, randi, 'drew, and others that you will know your mothers' loving presence.

When my Mom passed, my family decided to find a special way to honor her each year.
So, every year on her birthday, we throw her a party. We make her favorite dinner, drink her favorite beverage, and tell stories about her life.
It has been almost 10 years since she passed, but the yearly birthday parties continue. It is always a good time for our family to get together.
My prayers are with you, Randi. I know that a family birthday party probably isn't the best solution for you, but I am sure you will come up with some beautiful way to honor your mother.

<<<<< Carly and lou4656 >>>>>,
I appreciate the tho'ts and comments, This is a tough time,and Randibear is a precious giving woman!!!
The special celebration is a cool idea, , my family is scattered, so I was thinking along the lines of a small memorial garden idea,once we get moved and the wheather warms up.
<<<<< Randibear >>>>> May peace and comfort come to you on wings of Angels!

Silverwolf -- My family is scattered too. Some family in NY, some in the Carolinas, and the rest of us in Maryland.
Here is what we do. We select a certain time . . . let's say that we choose 8 pm. We call everyone that can't make the party and tell them that at 8 pm, they are to go outside and drink a toast to Mom.
As we raise our glasses in her honor at the party, we know that other people that loved Mom are doing the same thing at the same time.
Mom would have loved it.
I like the idea of a Memorial garden -- a place that you can go to remember, whenever you feel the need. Beautiful.

Thinking of your dear Mom and mine, who we always knew were mighty fine...
They were always the last to eat in the meal line while the rest of us just dined.
Did you grow your own grapes on the vine and then make wonderful, tasty wine? Did I see YOUR family's business sign?
We will always pine for our dear Moms who left before their time.

my beloved mom died 19 years ago july 22; she was my closest friend, and we did so much together enjoying each other to the fullest. she was the 1st to call me SPECIAL, and re-emphasized before her death...
here's to ALL OUR DEPARTED MOMS; you taught us well, and our unconditional love is due to all of you for all you taught us!!

THinking of you at this time, dear.
I know it's hard.
May 20th will be 4 years since I lost my dad, and my mom died 2 years ago in February.
I'm still not over either one, and I really wish I had them around now.
Sometimes I look at my younger son and see my dad--Wayde has so many little mannerisms that look like my dad, but Dad was gone before he was even conceived....
Hugs to all who are remembering someone they have lost.

Randibear~Praying you wonderful Mom memories.
My Mom has been gone now for 15 years and it feels just like a couple of years.
You know, I talk to her still and I know she is helping me. One of them is "Don't throw a can top you've just opened in the trash, you'll reach in there and cut yourself!" I have cut myself!!
When I'm really missing her, I remember....She was here before me and had everything ready. Now, I think she's setting up "house" for all of us first, just like this lifetime.
You know, that's what us MOM'S do. My prayers to your angels to take your aching heart to God and send you peace and your Mom's love. <<Hugs>>
