My mom has been gone for 6 years and I still think of her nearly everyday and miss her terribly. Friends of mine who complain about their mom's 'bugging' them with sensless phone calls, etc make me insane. I tell them, you will miss her when she's gone - more than you could ever know. As for questions....absolutely. I'd like to know more about our family tree, there are recipies I wish I would have gotten. But most of all, I wish I could just call her up and share the latest news. She was always so excited for anyhting going on in my life. Her optimism was increadible and her enthusiasm contagious. She was the best.
