MOTHER’S DAY 2009

Last week when I passed the Mother’s Day cards at the grocery store, I paused for a minute with a pang of sadness and walked on. My Mother had died in February and so I would not be celebrating Mother’s Day anymore. And not until a few days later when a neighbor asked what I would be doing on Mother’s Day, did it hit me that of course I would celebrate Mother’s Day. After all, I have two children and two grandchildren.

As my grandsons have a busy Sunday playing in their teams’ Lacrosse games, we couldn’t get together. Instead, we went out for dinner last night. And since my son lives in Chicago, I won’t get to see him, but I hope he will call me. However, if I don’t hear from him by 7:00, I will call him instead. “Rick,” I will say, “How are you doing. I am just calling so that you can wish me Happy Mother’s Day ;-) “. As they say if the mountain won’t come to you, then you should go to the mountain.
