My mother.......

Today my mother has been dead for 17 years. It is hard to believe that I have not heard her voice or her laugh in so long. Sometimes I am reduced to tears by how much I miss her. Most of the time her memory makes me smile because I have so many good things to recall. She loved God and her family, and there were so many people that loved her. She had an amazing sense of humor and the most amazing laugh. I miss the sound of that laugh so much..............

It sounds like you were really blessed to have her as your mother. I know Laura is really blessed to have you too :)

Mrs. Hammond (yes, I still refer to you as Mrs. Hammond from high school!), I know exactly how you are feeling. I lost my mother when I was just Nine years old. 18 years ago this thanksgiving. Please continue to think happy thoughts and know that God will bless you richly when you are with her again!
