I feel great sadness for those whose relationship has gone off track. I'm incredibly blessed to have the history, the memories. Thanks.<BR/><BR/><B>Ruth</B>, I think sometimes that I write as much for others as I do for myself. And in this relationship of mother/daughter (whether we are the former or the latter), we are a sisterhood so that each of us needs others and is needed by others to walk through the tangle. Thank you and you're welcome. <BR/><BR/><B>Jenn</B>, I see this relationship growing with you and Bellie. There will be hard times, for certain, but I believe that you, like my mother, have the foresight and patience to weather the storms and become best friends. :)<BR/><BR/><B>Betty</B>, I haven't read that book. Guess I'd better! Life without Mother is always difficult. Our moms are supposed to be here forever to continue guiding us through life. I was fortunate to have her until I was 56, but we all feel like children in need of mommies at times, regardless of chronology. Thanks, Betty.<BR/><BR/><B>Melissa</B>, Mom and I talked about those years, and she told me that she thought .... often .... that if she heard "Well, excuuuuuse me for living!!" just one more time, she would help me to not have to made apologies again!! She remembered that as the only time in my life that she felt pushed beyond reason. I'm glad that I wasn't one of her "trials" that were persistent throughout her life. :)<BR/><BR/>Thank you, <B>Traci</B>, and Happy Mother's Day to you, also.Lyniluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04742585512852240355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28840534.post-56607568549448229212008-05-11T11:28:00.000-06:002008-05-11T11:28:00.000-06:00Beautiful my dear.

Your tribute to your mother is very moving.<BR/><BR/>I have a hard time thinking about my mother. She's been gone for a long time.
