Sigh.
Today is my mother’s birthday. She would have been 65 years old.
Sigh.
You think I might be used to her being gone, since this year marks the 14th anniversary of her death.
But I’m not.
I still miss her and wish she was here.
Especially on her birthday.

I am so sorry Cathy. That hurts. I don’t think we ever get over losing anyone, especially our parents. I feel so lucky as mine are still around. My dad turned 71 this year. My biggest fear is losing them someday. Honest to goodness, I’ll be completely lost.
Your feelings are so understandable.

Happy Birthday, Cathy’s mom! I pray that God would wrap His arms around you today, and let you know that He is there. . .
He is Yahweh Shammah. . .
I’m praying for you, friend.
I was organzing my blogs in Google reader (since Newshutch is pulling the plug), and couldn’t find you in my “friends” list. And then I realized I had put you under “Family”.
Love you.
You have been in my thoughts and prays. i know your mom would be so pround of you. Even though we haven’t talked in 3 years, I am still thankful to have you as a friend. You have always been in my heart.

I remember your mother often. Without fail, I always smile uncontrollably. I remember the sparkle in her eyes when she got excited about us trying something new in the classroom. I remember her little “isms” like “Quick, Quick!”.
Given the impression and impact she had on my life, I can only imagine that this time of year must be very hard for you. Please know that you are in my thoughts prayers.
I miss her too, Cathy. I think of you and Julie and your dad every September 27th. Your mom meant so much to me, and there are days I’d love to talk to her, too. She was an amazing lady.
