Sunday was Mother's Day and as always it's a bittersweet holiday for me. I love being a mom, it's been the most fulfilling, yet most difficult thing I've ever done. However not having my own mom around, it's as if I'm missing something (part of my heart) and most days I don't realize it, I go about my daily life not thinking of the saddeness I feel but then annually Mother's Day comes around and WHAM there's the slap of reality and I'm suddenly overcome with heart ache.
I realize that I was fortunate in that I call my mom one of my best friends, I told her everything about my life, she was a great listener, and an amazing mom. So when the day rolls around, I withdrawal a little from others, I don't mean to but I realize I do. It's still after all these years a tender moment for me.
Happy Mother's Day mom
