RE: the hunt for mom... found her... and her broom

[Guest guest]

I swear your mom and my mom were born under the same sign and that they

share the same broom. Maybe they ought to live together. I can arrange that

you know!Lets see, they both move in together. We make sure their phone

number is unlisted and we forget their phone number! Yeah how can we call

when we cant remember the phone number and it is not listed! I think that's

a plan. Besides " misery enjoys company!. Len

I wish I could complain about my Mother the same way your doing, but I lost her

11 years ago a week before Christmas.

I never met my grandmother because I was only 3 months old when she died.

But I would rather died to disrespect her or my mom as you ladies are doing? We

become remember what they were. So who is going to put up with you when your

old?

The things I hated about my mom are the things I loved more about her now that

she is dead. She made this holiday special not only to her 4 kids but also to

everyone that never had a place to spend at this time. She made extra food,

wrapped extra presents so they could open them and never had a but a smile for

everyone she met.

How I would give to be talking in a one side conversation with her right now,

how I miss her sweet voice. When she was alive, she would in front of people

fix my hair, or my dress and always let me walk in front so I could shine, and I

took this bad because I thought I was grown up. I was only her little girl and

she protected me and when I felt bad she always had a shoulder to cry on.

How proud she would be that I lost so much weight! How proud would she be now

that I fit into a smaller size! You see, I never grew up fat but became a

overweight person.

The only thing we can do when our parents get old is to listen to them, care for

them and be patient. Remember some day you will be old and the way this looks

not only are you going to be old but lonely and this is not good.

Enjoy your grandmother and mom they way they are, tell them you love them and

remind them of this everyday. Shriver, the first lady of California,

wrote a good book about telling people how you loved them.

Please enjoy them while you have them. Believe me, you miss them more when

their gone and time doesn't heal. You miss them more each day.

Merry Christmas,

Elsie
