Early Years

I remember the early years. I remember her as a good listener and she always validated my feelings. She was giving. She gave her time, money, love and attention. I remember Christmases, where she put so much effort into making them special and perfect, as she also did Easter, Thanksgiving and birthday dinners. She went out of her way to make all your favorite foods and made your day all about you.

Mom/my mother-in-law, was 41 yrs. old when I gave birth to Dawn, her first grandchild. She loved her very much and was always willing to take her whenever she could. When Dawn was barely 3 yrs. old, I admitted her into Lakeview General Hospital for some minor surgery. As I was walking to my car I felt a contraction. I went to see mom and dad and told them I thought I was having contractions. Dad immediately said, “ If you were having contractions, you would know it.” Like he would know, right? I didn’t actually say that to him, and in all fairness, I’m sure he was referring to hard labor. I can still hear mom’s laughter at our conversation and her excitement and anticipation of her second grandbaby. Brad was born within hours of our conversation. Right on his due date of 9/11/74. Mom and dad cared for Dawnie, as she had her scheduled surgery at a totally different hospital than me. I am so thankful for all moms’ unconditional love and support that she willingly gave to me.

Mom’s love language was, Words of Affirmation. I am affirming my heartfelt love for her and filling my empty heart with so many happy memories as they are flooding my mind. Thank You Mom, Love and Miss you
