Born Catholic and raised as one of Jehovah's Witnesses, Mothers Day was everyday! However in recent years before my mom died Mother's Day took a different meaning! It was a time like other holiday's we made a special effort to all get together at Mom's house and eat bring some flowers and just enjoy her company!
For the first time in my life I don;t have a mother on Mother's Day!But the saddest thing is I don;t have a mother any day! Being baptized as a Catholic at birth there was something given to me called a Godmother! I never thought much about it until my mom died! I have known her she is about 10 years older than me and I call it wisdom on my mothers part for she has been my joy in recent weeks!
Her name is Lidia DeJesus, she lives in MA and she has been there to give me some wisdom and listen to me, but more important she has become my substituted Mother! She called me to thank me for the flowers I know send her instead of my mother and to tell me this would be a hard weekend but to be strong for my mother is resting in better place!
I appreciate the kind loving words! She recently told me and I deal with issues with my siblings "that as you age it becomes easier just to turn the other side of you're face"! Abilio sometimes you just have to let it go even if you're right! This is the wisdom I miss from my mother but am happy the creator provided me with someone who would take over when my mother died!
I dedicate this to my Godmother! She may never read it but I deeply appreciate her on this, the first Mother's Day without my mother!
Happy Mother's day to everyone and please appreciate you're mother! A treasure that once gone is never seen again!
To My mother and Godmother!
