| Picture of Mom taken by my grandson |
Shopping today there was a lady with the same color hair and the same hairdo. I did a double take. She didn't look like Mom but she reminded me of her. I stared. I hope she wasn't offended.
Sometimes I get a whiff of cigarette smoke and I think she's here but she's not and there's no one around.
Two days ago it was my parents 63rd Wedding Anniversary. I don't think Dad remembered. He was always bad at remembering that date. This year I was thinking it's a good thing he didn't. Or at least he didn't say he did. I hope Mom didn't mind too much.
A Prayer for a Deceased Mother
O God, who hast commanded us to honor our father and our mother; in Thy mercy have pity on the soul of my mother, and forgive her her trespasses; and make me to see her again in the joy of everlasting brightness. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

(((hugs))) I had the similar things happen when my mom passed away. Praying for you all.
Here is another hug. That whiff of smoke "is" your mom letting you know she watches over you.
