Today I can say with all certainty that I’m as sad as I have ever been. My lovely sister had to be moved to a memory care facility last weekend and the we lost Mom this afternoon at a hospice facility. Today, needing to be tough enough to guide those I truly love is not the easiest. But, I know what she would expect from me so we will do what it takes to honor the toughest, kindest, most loving person I have ever known. Not just because she is my Mom. Because she taught us how to endure tragedies and love at the same time. That is how special she is to me. She is always part of me. I took this picture after she had been to church the last time. She sure enjoyed it.
