The last time Mother's day was on a May 13 was 45 years ago. I remember this, because this was when my husband and I met for the very first time

Thanks for sharing this on this special day.

My tears are for me. This is the 10th Mother’s Day I have been without my mother and I miss her terribly. I cherish all the years I had her.

Happy Mother’s day, Mamasan.

I know it was on May 13 in 1990.

Kaslin, you said, ‘The last time Mother’s day was on a May 13 was 45 years ago. I remember this, because this was when my husband and I met for the very first time.’

Interesting, what a wonderful day to meet one’s future spouse. Thanks for this thread.

Mom
Though logic tells me something else,
I tend to think my Mom will always be there.

She always has been,
Exactly where she should be
every time that she was needed
and she always done
exactly what was needed all the time.

Scolding or soothing,
remembering or reminding.
laughing with me,
and sometimes crying.

Her existence is a constant in my life,
so I’m sure I take for granted her availability.

Yet I know there’ll come a time
when I have to live without her.
And I also know that I can,
for some of her great strength she gave to me.

And I’m certain she will always be
a constant in my life.
Each time she’s needed,
she’ll be there.
Inside my mind, inside my heart,
deep in my memory.

Miss and love you Mom,
April 26, 1921 - April 12, 1988
