So, today, my mom would have turned 49. I'm really missing her today. I am thinking I will buy some flowers and take them to her gravesite.
It really gets to me sometimes that she never got to meet my son. I was 6 months pregnant with him when she died. She was so excited for another grandbaby! She was planning a welcome home baby party for him at her house for after he was born. (Btw, thanks again Trin, for stepping up and doing that for me in her absence!) She talked about it all the time and when we would go shopping, she would look for things, and get ideas for what kind of stuff I wanted for the baby.
We had just been out shopping 2 days before she passed, and she was feeling great! Very upbeat and happy. She was often depressed because of her health problems and loss of eyesight, but she was always happy when she was around her grandkids.
So, I am just feeling rather emotional today. Missing my one and only mommy. I can't even imagine how my grandparents are feeling today...missing their one and only baby!

Aww, honey. I'm so sorry that you are sad about your mommy today. She was a very special lady and you certainly are right about the way she loved her grandkids (kids and kids-in-law, too)!
I am so sorry! I can't even begin to imagine that kind of pain.
I have tears in my eyes right now. I cannot IMAGINE losing a parent. My mom is one of my best friends, not just my mom. I am so, SO very sorry ~ I just don't know what to say. :( It's heartbreaking that she never got to meet him ... at least she got to share in your pregnancy experience and joys, though. Man, that just hurts my heart. :(
