Mom

Bits and Pieces posted a few “Children’s Letters to God” the other day, and like so many things do, it made me think of my mother.

I spent a great deal of time reading to her the last few months of her life, and that book was one of our favorites. It made us laugh, it made us cry, and helped start a few conversations we probably never would have had.

I know I will probably miss my mother forever, but I wonder if I will ever reach a point where thinking about her doesn’t bring tears to my eyes.

From the book-

“Dear God,

I am doing the best I can.

Frank”

That says it all, doesn’t it?
