Mom's Birthday

Today my mom is 60 years old in heaven. I miss her so much, and today I've been thinking about the things that I miss most about her:

I miss her laugh. Sometimes she would laugh so hard that she would poot! (She would kill me for telling that!)

I miss how she would always teach the boys something new everytime she kept them.

I miss how she could take care of me like no one else.

I miss how she would have my house spotless and re-arranged everytime we went out of town.

I miss how I couldn't find things in my house that she moved when we had been out of town.

I miss how she would have dinner ready for us after coming home from a trip.

I miss calling her on the phone and telling her the funny things the boys just did.

I miss getting her parenting advice when I need it the most.

I miss how she would give me advice even when I didn't want it or ask for it.

I miss my friend, my counselor, my prayer warrior.

I miss that I can't tell her that we're having another baby-(I think she already knows!)

I miss that she won't be with me when this baby is born, but somehow I can imagine that she will have the best seat imaginable!

I miss that I can't tell her how much I love her.

Don't miss an opportunity to tell people how much they mean to you. You never know when it might be the last time you spend with them!
