Well hello out there, Ainslie wote on my facebook wall to go read the old blog (this one), that Mom was such a funny lady. So, I came here and reread the entire thing. It is so hard to believe all that has happened since we all quit blogging. It is also hard to believe how active and vibrant our mother was then. Everything was written before her diagnosis I think and it made me miss the mom I loved so much before she became the sick mom that I also loved. My grief has been focused on the sick mom and the mom that I remembered from my childhood. I had almost forgotten the Mom that came out of her grief at the loss of Dad and became such a gad about. She was so active and happy doing all the things she loved. I think in her honor we need to return to the blog. It is amazing how our history is recorded here. Jim turning 50, the birth of Wes, Kelly teacher of the year, Mom's trip to California by hersef, Remodel of Brian's house, the heartbreak of putting Beags down. So much record...
