I thought we'd have her many more years, but she got sick and died within a week's time. I still miss her every mother's day. I didn't learn to quilt until a few years ago, and I so wish I could have made a quilt for her. (She didn't quilt, but her mother did.)
I retired a year early to spend time with my mom. She's 86 and in reasonably good health so that we can still take day trips and do some fun things. Hopefully we are making memories that will get us though the hard times when they come because we all know that things will get worse as time passes. Treasure the memories of your mother.
