It was just always her and I. Wherever I went, she went. She would pick me sometimes over her friends. She liked us to go shopping rather than go with her girlfriends ..."

Ugh. Something I never want to even remotely speculate about. Out living either of my children.

I wasn't only refering to children here. To anyone in your families or friends. I lost my Mom this year and as I was reading this a tear ran. Then I knew that this touches all of us that have lost someone very close to us. *Hugs*

Yep, this is the first Christmas for me without my mother as well, WW. It's going to be hard but MUCH harder on my dad.

I'm so sorry for this woman's pain.

mrsrachelm, When someone etches their name on your heart it just stays there, This Christmas is going to be a little didfferent. She sounds like a great mom.

Wraith777- Agreed, My one wish forever is to let me go first. Keep the order of life, I would never want to outlive my children.
