Ther are so many memories that I could share with everyone. Some of the ones
that come up first are the memories of home. I am listing them in the order as they happened and am sure my mom will remember each and every one of them
1. I remember the hard hours my Mother put in to keeping our house clean and
neat for us. She worked hard.
2. I remember all the extra kids we would bring home and never once was a child
turned away form our home. She fed them just as if they all belonged there.
3. We moved to the country. We hated it but, my parents made it the best
back then there were no seat belt laws and we would plile in. All the kids in our little town loved my parents.
4. Family meals were always just that family.
5. Then we kids started leaving home and my parents decided the would accept foster children...The took in many but 2 of them they adopted and
2 years after the adoption my Dad passed away....How hard this was on my Mother but she put her all into it. Raised 2 wonderful kids.
5. through all of this we hard trials and tribulations. Grandkids, great grandkids
she loved them all.
6. mom, kari and I had our weekly shoppin trips to massena. These were some great times. You never shopped with anyone untl you've shopped with my mother. I would put things in my cart and she would remove them saying I didn't need them. Then when she couldn't find me she would stand in the middle of the store and yell my name until I found her......hahahahaha......kari would laugh so hard. what I wouldn't give to have these times back.....
7. I remember her and her sister Gert spending time together..They always had so much fun...making fudge that didn't turn out right., dancing at parties and at our house where our family dog would get so made she would pull my mothers shirt until swhe stopped. Running errands for grandmoa Rose.
8. But out of all of these I will never forget the day they told my mother she had lung cancer....I cried....she just wiped away the tears and said she would fight it until there was no more fight left and not to cry because when it was here time to go she would be with my Dad and my baby brother Bob.
9. Now all these memories are in my mind. Sometimes we talk about them and sometimes I just just sit and think alone. But no matter where I am and what I am doing the memory my mother left me is always fresh in my heart and on my mind, it is the momories of the most wonderfuol mother , sister, friend, grandma, great grandma and especially everybodys AJ baby in the world.
I LOVE YOU MOM AND I SURE DO MISS YOU SO VERY MUCH. SOON WE WILL BE TOGETHER AGAIN.
