[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know it’s not quite Mother’s Day yet but I’ve been thinking a lot about my mom lately because my kids are approaching the ages me and my siblings were when my dad died and how I just really respect and treasure my mom for how she handled it. My favorite memory of her is a few nights after my dads funeral she was sewing my brothers Halloween costume and our house was filled, and I mean filled, with casseroles. It was late, maybe an hour or two after she put us to bed and I came down and told her I couldn’t sleep. In a very very out of characteristic move she suggested we order Chinese. At this house? With all this “free food” already made and prepared for us? Eating in secret on the couch without my siblings? Didn’t seem like my mom! We ordered Chinese and we didn’t talk much, she just knew I needed to sit next to her. After we ate and we were cleaning up she said “I want you to know that I can handle this. Our family and your life isn’t stopping. We will be happy and we will have a great life.” And I just believed her. It was what I needed. And we did. [/quote]

I love this story.  Your mom is great![/quote]
