Quote From: chimocatsI've been feeling in a funk all day - can't get with it. I didn't even want to come here to post, but when I read your post about it being 6 yrs in Nov since you lost your Mom, the light bulb went on. Next week it will be 11 yrs that my Mom has been gone. I always get blue at this time of year, but never realize why at the time. If I hadn't read your post I would probably have been in a funk till after the anniversary of her death which is next Thursday. Now I know what's the matter. Thanks! I still miss my Mom like crazy too.
You are such an inspiration!! I wish I could "get" it like you have!

Oh BJ, thank you! You've got me all teary-eyed here. I do understand exactly how you feel where your Mom is concerned. It is a void that can never be filled. The fact that I am going to be a Grammy in February for the first time is also making me think of her more these days. She would be so overjoyed for me and and for herself to have a new great-grandchild. I believe in my heart that she knows and that when the time comes, she'll be smiling down on us all and I can "see" that in my mind and feel it in my heart. As much as it hurts, I believe we have to keep their memories alive and I believe that at least in spirit, she's always near.
I'm glad that I can help inspire your WLC. I have found so much inspiration and support from everyone here that I just have to pass it on! What is it Oprah says . ."we get back from the world, what we give out to the world"? I'm a believer!
