For My Mother's

Happy Mother's Day! To my three mothers , my birth mother Josie and my two mother-in-laws, Alice and Flo. Flo is step mother to Cary.

So much time has passed since I have last posted and I am feeling at a loss for words, though I have so much to say. These last several months were not boring or typical for me, not in the least bit. At any rate I think I will start at slow and leave the theme of this post to the mothers. Now that I am older I can truly appreciate all the hard work you have put in. Actually, scratch that. I don't think I will ever be able to truly appreciate all your hard work unless I become a mother myself. With the love and support of my mom's, both real and virtual, this disease is not half as bad as it could be. Now the tears begin to roll and it is now time to say good-bye and wish for the courage to write again.

Love and Peace,

Lori

Lori,
So glad to see your words and hear your voice again. I just celebrated my first Mother's day since being reunited with my birth son Stephen and it has felt so good. My mom, Betty sent me a Mother's day card and I got a lovely long phone call from Stephen and his wife Kyra thanking me for now being in their lives. I can't wait for them to meet you and Cary and see how wonderful the Miller family and extended friends and animals are. love and miss you, auntie Lou Lou

I hope that the tears bring some sort of release. If they don't, I hope you'll find your way here. Things are hard. We love you.

Be gentle with yourself if you can. If you can't, let others be gentle with you.

Thinking of you always,

KP

Hey girl!
I havent' come by your blog in a while - life pulled the rug out from me two months ago when it suddenly took my mom's life, so I've been in a pretty dark place. Especially with Mother's Day kind of pouring salt in such very fresh wounds.

I can't tell you how often I think about you and Cary, though. Your love and your lives have touched mine profoundly. Your love for one another shines through your writing as well as through his and it reaches out from the computer and grabs your readers by their hearts.

That' powerful stuff!!! And that powerful love is what will pull you through. Ain't nothing more powerful than LOVE!

Blog when you feel like blogging, cry when you feel like crying, laugh when you feel like laughing and....when you really want to step your game up, throw open your window and drop a couple hundred F-bombs on the world.

Er, you might not want to do it in front of your dogs, though. They might question about "Mom's" sanity!

Love, Strong thoughts, and cyber hugs,
Joi
