Mother's Day

This is a piece of me i am changing. My mom and i took Bill and Dad up to the airport for an a trip when i was pregnant with Aaron. After dinner we went down to the board walk....I dont like pictures in general, a trait i got from my mom....but here is one where she is actually smiling a good smile, and i.......am having attitude about something....how long it took to take teh photo? we were needing to go so they would not be late to the flight....really who knows.  What i DO know is i wish that i was smiling.  Many friends sent me texts on mother's day....the day was half over before i realized my mom was absent. This blog is a place where i can be totally honest....yes i miss my mom, i miss her soft cheeks and hands, i miss her hugs, i miss her wisdom, her design sense, her problem solving skills, her reading to boys so many things, but manyof these things i also appreciated when she was here. Im so thankful for the mom i had! back to teh photo,,,,im learning to not sweat the small stuff...not be so up tight.......and not to have great expectations of getting the great photo, just to docment we were there and soak in the moment. this day we took dad and bill to airport and whne they checked in dad had to do an extra security clearance apparently Don Michael is on the do not fly list...oh boy did mom and i have a laugh over dads face that day! good night, eric just came down stairs :|
