Thread: "Mother's Day" a New Perspective

Every year it starts a week or two before the day. Her dispassionate pleas of "don't do anything fancy", or "I don't need anything special" fall on deaf ears. Always concerned about how much it costs us or not wanting to be an inconvenience. Always thinking of us not her. Nothing new for our mother.

Of course after a full day of entertainment & laughter ending with a diner at her favorite spot she always tells us it was a lovely day and how lucky she feels to have such wonderful and loving children.

This year will be different. Unfortunately you see she passed last October and for the first time in my life I won't be celebrating mother's day. Although I admit to being very melancholy tonight I didn't write this thread to express my personally sadness. Rather I would like to solicit a promise from all my fellow SRP forum brothers. Promise me that all of you who still have your mother with you will reach out to her and make tomorrow a day for both of you to appreciate what you have.

Nothing would make me happier.

Love you Mom.

Your Son Rick

Well said. Happy Mothers Day to all of the Mothers out there, we wouldn't be here without them!
