I would have loved to be snugged up with my Mother & Toto in her den watching old AMC John Wayne movies all day on a Saturday! We did that a lot and although some of them were "new" to her ... I would always smile to myself and tell her "this does look like a good one" and watch "The Sons of Katie Elder" again!!  |
Awww ... so sorry to hear about your mother. But this is a really beautiful story.
Your circumstances are very different in that your mother and Toto had a relationship and it would almost have been wrong to not have her there. I know if it were me, my mother would want her "babies" involved, too!
