Change Is Hard

Mother’s Day

by 14 Comments

This is the 20th Mother’s Day without my mom physically here on this earth. But I’m pretty sure she knows I’m sending a happy Mother’s Day wish up to her and all the other mothers that have moved on to the next adventure.

I don’t think there even has to be internet up there for her to see how much we love and miss her.

I'm a long time banker having worked in banks since the age of 17. I took a break when I turned 50 and went back to school. I graduated right when the economy took a turn for the worst and after a year of library work found myself unemployed. I was lucky that my previous bank employer wanted me back. So here I am again, a long time banker. Change is hard.

    Dawn, you’re so fortunate to be able to keep your mom close — in your heart as well as via photos. Twenty years? Wow, that seems like such a long time. This is only my second Mother’s Day without my mom, but I know I’ll always miss her. Wouldn’t it be grand if they met one another up in Heaven?!?

    It is 15 years for me since I lost my mom. I believe she is looking down on me. These are beautiful photos of your family Dawn.

      I talk to both my folks all the time. Probably more to my mom, cause she’s the one that would answer cooking and cleaning and general stuff questions when I was growing up. I talk to dad about all the political stuff, and safety stuff. They’re pretty good listeners.
