This is my Mom. Anita. I am remembering her today, as I do almost everyday. There are always little things that pop up during the day that you think she would find funny or interesting and that you should tell her. I am one of the unfortunate ones that can't do that. My Mom died in 1982 - that is 31 years ago - I have lived over half my life without my Mom. But I remember things she did for me. I don't think I appreciated them at the time but I do now. I remember when I was living on Parent and Erie, by myself and at 10pm on a Sunday nite there was a huge centipede in my bathroom - I knew I couldn't kill it as I wouldn't even go in the room - I hated and still hate them. I called my Mom at home (Windermere and Memorial Drive) and she came over and killed it for me. Only a Mom would do that. And my Mom's cherry pie - to die for. How she would dress us up for Easter. All of us 3 girls in little hats, little white gloves, new shoes and a frilly dress. Good memories.
What I wouldn't give to spend one more day with her...
Happy Mother's Day
