So today is my Moms' birthday. She would have been 66. She passed when I was 22 and she was 48. I reached for the phone to call my grams as I do every time it is Moms' birthday and realized she wasn't there.
Do you remember that skit on Sesame Street where this little black girls mom asks her to go to the grocery store and says, "get a loaf of bread, a jug of milk and a stick of butter". The little girl repeats it all the way to the store. A loaf of bread, a jug of milk and a stick of butter. Today I am a stick of butter.

Sorry this is a bit late. Just read your blog tonight.
You should be indulgent. I say pick up a bottle of champagne and toast the lovely lady she was and the lovely lady she has helped you to be. Do it every year. Some years buy the kids sparkling cider and tell them your favourite stories while you sip together. Love you, and if I had read this sooner I would have done a champagne drive by.
Love your drive by stalker.
