I love my family.

We cried a lot the past few weeks, but we also laughed a lot. Never a dull moment with a family of this size! My mom did a great job taking care of us all these years and also taught us how to take care of each other. We just didn't know how much we were capable of until now. I think my mom would be proud. :)
I'm so glad that you have sisters. That's one thing I dread when something happens to my mom. I just have brothers. I hope I can remember all she has taught me, because I know they haven't been paying attention. I'm so glad you have them to reminisce with, laugh with, and cry with.
ReplyDeleteMy brothers have been very supportive, so you may be pleasantly surprised.
ReplyDeleteOne thing you might consider doing...
A few years ago I bought my mom a "Mother's Journal" from Hallmark for Mother's Day. That way she could write down memories, stories, etc and I could have it to remember her by.
