I had to work all day and then got hit with a storm and my day was getting worse as it went along. but ...... Cindy0721 came along with a couple nice gifts and a big glass of iced drink. wasn't that nice of her? she is such a thoughtful person.
I never get upset on Mothers day. (even tho I want so badly to call my mother who passed away a couple yrs ago). I generally get a phone call from my kids and my X-step son too. that is all I need. Just to hear they are doing good.
I sit back and remember when they were babies and how lucky the world is that I provided such great kids. My son, being a man, sometimes don't call but if I dont hear from him I will make the call. It is ok. If they were not to call me on mothers day, I give my self enough pats on the back on their behalf because I know I did the best I could do to provide them a happy life.
They are happy ..so ... I am happy.
