Missing her



Between 11:00 and 11:30 during the weekdays, I would call Bob's Mom just to check in with her to see if she was up out of bed yet and to see how she was feeling. Some mornings you could hear in her voice how tired and sick she was but others she really sounded good. Sometimes we would have a long talk but many times it was just a quick 5 minute update. I would mostly talk about the boys and Bob and I and we would share stories and I would share what I had going on for the day. I really enjoyed our talks and now I really miss them. She was always very reassuring if I had a problem with one of the boys and even when she was very sick, she always wanted to know how her boys were. She would always tell me how much she wished her kids were all babies again. She loved them all so very much.

I thought that I had posted the last picture I had taken but today I found one from my birthday that was just 2 1/2 weeks before she went to Heaven.

This picture is of Denise and her Mom. Denise took her Mom to every doctors appointment, chemo, cat scan, you name it and Denise was there. It was never easy but she never complained. You can just see how much she loves her Mom and her Mom loves her.
