Hi Stef...I am sorry you are hurting so. This last trip I had said all my Good-Byes the Night before, and awoke & was packed, before anyone even got up.
I hate Good-Byes, and these days, never know when it will be my last. I stood in the kitchen, and I though "My Mom is just down that hall, and if I do not make this tiny effort, to give her a proper Good-Bye, and something should happen to her?" Well, I walked those 10 steps, because I knew that soon I would be 1,200 miles away.
I lay beside her in bed, and we talked, I pet her head, she cried, and sang me a Lullably. And she said "Who is going to buy me new clothes?" My heart..broke..I told her I Loved her, and she was always welcome to come live with me. She wont remember, but "I" will!
I will hold this moment in my heart...forever...until the next time. Yes, it is painful, but I thought important, for me.
Keep us posted Stef! And keep up that great spirit of yours! You are a gift to this world, and please, never forget it!
OOOXXXOOO N.Mc.
