Nick C Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 occured to me at 5 o'clock this morning. Saying the word "Mom" and having someone who responds. Gosh I miss her today... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharyn Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Nick, I can completely relate to what you just said... the other day, I was home alone, and just wanted to say "Daddy" and have him answer me. I stood there feeling absolutely alone.... It is strange how some of the simpliest things in life, can be missed so immensely... just having our parent answer us. I hope today moves along smoothly for you, missing her is a good thing, it means she is very close in your heart. Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Wood Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 There have been a few incidents when I am just waking up where I hear my name called very clearly, and it sounds like Lucie. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MomsGirl Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 So true. God how I miss hearing her voice and her telling me, "I love you, honey." I try to tell myself we were all blessed, for however too short a time. Nick, I've said it before, but I can only hope my sons love and respect me so openly later in life as much as you do your mom...she was a lucky woman. Not to say that boys don't show their love to their moms, but you know what I mean... You should take some comfort in what a good son you were to her...it's all a mom hopes for in life.

melindasue37 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I completely understand, Nick. I miss saying "Mom" & I miss saying the words... I love you, Mom. There are days that are just so hard remembering what we don't have anymore. Sometimes life just seems so unfair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DianeR Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Nick, I too know what you mean. I would love to say "dad" and hear his voice answer me. I have a phone message he left me that I put on my tape recorder. Every once in a while I play that message just to hear his voice talking to me. Oh how I miss my dad! Nick, I agree with the others that your mom was very lucky to have such a loving and caring son. It shows how much you cared in every message you write. Take care and I hope with time the pain lessens for all of us. Diane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crystleshoe Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 nick I agree. Sometimes I have conversations with her and hope that she can hear me. I answer myself as I think she would and I talk to her like she is in front of me. ( only when im alone though so my family doesnt think ive gone totally loopy.

Mskim Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 (((NICK))) I was thinking this morning, of her puttering around her house, lighting candles, stoking a fire, knitting on the couch, waiting for me to come once the kids were dropped off at school. I would call her and tell her I was on my way.... "MOM.. you have to get up and unlock the door, I love you"... Wednesdays we stayed in together, my friend would pick the kids up from pre school and keep them for the whole day so we would just sit and talk or snuggle or snooze. She would tell me mostly about when she was young. I think she dreamed her heaven would be back on the farm with her mom and dad and she would be 13 and carefree again, instead of 57 with the weight of the world on her shoulders. Oh what I would give for another Wednesday next to her. I was at church this weekend and a mom daughter and granddaughter were all together and the little girl crawled into her grammas lap and whispered "gramma I love you". I had to get up and leave. Holy Smokes I ramble don't I? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick C Posted February 28, 2007 Author Share Posted February 28, 2007 Kim, You reminded me of something. When I moved away and I was going to my mother's unexpectedly I would call and say, "Mom, I'm coing home, don't shoot me." My mom carried a gun, so I knew if I were perceived as an intruder I ran an awful risk... Rememebering this fact made me smile. She loved telling people that's what I would do when I came over. She had a great sense of humor. I have to say I am also very affected when I see mothers and grown sons, or grandmothers with grandchildren.
