...... gee it always seems to come around so quickly .....38 years ago today (I wonder what time?) my Mum passed away, when I was 2 and Bub was just a few weeks old. Over the years all the normal quotes have been made about being 'so young', and 'oh she was so beautiful' and numerous others. Yes, she was young and yes she was by all accounts 'beautiful'... but she also was 'my Mum' so anything that's been said in the past can keep being said, because it keeps her close to me somehow.
I remember when her 25th anniversary came round, I did up a little memorial card, so to speak... her photo on the front, a really nice verse inside, then something I just wrote myself. A copy of this was given to my Uncle's and Aunty Carmel and Dad also. I always say photos are so important, dates are so important and they are. My fear is that one day I can't remember all these special days and times.... I suppose if I can't.... well I won't know I can't hey so it will be all fine :-)
Our whole life is just one memory added to another really and today my blog just says 'Mum I remember you' and that the 18th of August 2009 has not slipped by without my thoughts going to you.
