When Mother’s Day Hurts | Part 1

I have been doing a poll on our blog’s Facebook page about Mother’s Day and what mom’s want most for this day. While some moms of very young children said they wanted sleep, the overwhelming reply was no matter what the big flower, card, and candy companies say- Moms want you. They want to see your face, to hear you voice, to get a hug. They want your time. They want to hear the words I’m coming home.

Grandma, what do you want for Mother’s Day?  “Oh honey, all I want is to spend time with you!”

My grandma just passed away in November and she used to ask me all the time… “Do you ever hear from my children? Do they know where I am? Do you hear from my other grandchildren?  Do they ask about me?”
