Darn it, Debi, I told you I'm a big old mush! Your mom is a saint and I'm sorry she left you so young. Life isn't fair.
I'm writing this with tears in my eyes because I never had the opportunity to say good-bye to my mom because of stupid family squabbles. And I miss her!

Do me a favor... check out the song Mama, sung by Jerry Vale. It's both in Italian and English. I sing this to her all the time.

    Thank you John, my sweet friend for this lovely review and your dear comments, along with the honor of your six stars. They all mean the world to me. I do appreciate you so very much.

    You know John, I can understand where you are coming from. My little brother Denny and I had a conflict and I never did get a chance to make it right before he was killed in a car accident, i spent years suffering for that. Guilt is not a fun thing to carry around. So I hope you have found a way to get around it now. You are too good of a guy and your mom knew you loved her. I am sure of that.
    Lotsa love, my friend and Merry Christmas!! Debi

Hi Debi,
This is a good ode to your mother. You never stop missing them. Birthdays and holidays are when you remember most. Sorry for you loss.
Keep writing and stay healthy.
Happy Holidays.
Joan

Beautiful, Debi!

Your mother sounds like a wonderful woman. I believe with all my heart you will see her again, as we all hope.

It's a beautiful tribute to your mom, and I have to say I've never heard that song. I loved it! Best, JohnC

We don't appreciate what our mothers give up for her children, the pain she suffers when we suffer. Our mums are heros, and I wish I could have mine back to just tell her that. This was a beautiful poem, Debi, for your mom, who was taken far too early. We all believe our mums will live forever, and it comes as a shock when they are suddenly no longer there. Well done, my friend, your mom has most likely already seen this, and is smiling down on you. Love and hugs, Sandra xx

This is a really sweet piece. Your mum sounds like a really special and a kind and loving person. An excellent piece of writing. I really enjoyed reading it.

Thank you so much for sharing this, Debi. My Mum has gone now too (and my Dad) and we're so much more conscious of personal losses and griefs as we approach Christmas. Thanks for giving us some insight into the wonderful person your Mum was and prompting us also to reflect on our own loved ones. xx

My mum made it to 89, she had a great relationship with my girls, I'm sorry you lost your mother at such a young age, but I love the fact all eight kids were her kids, what a woman. Another beautifully written post dear Debi, and I love the way you honour people, blessings Roy

Your mom was truly heroic, Debi! Thank you for sharing about your wonderful, loving mom who was so strong in faith that she could give love overflowing to others family and students and neighbors and foster kids...I'm sad she had to go to Heaven so young.

    Thank you with all my heart for this beautiful review and comments for my mom's birthday poem. I bet you were surprised to find this one instead of Patch and Ruby this morning. Actually that will be tomorrow. I needed to do this today. It is the first piece I have written for her since the first year she was gone. And that has been thirty years ago, so it was time. Thank you for giving this six stars. I know you maybe don't see what others see in you, but you are on the same caliber in my eyes, and that is the best compliment I can give any woman. So thank you again, my very sweet friend.

    Thank you with all my heart! I know you mean it even if I can't see it myself. But someday we'll all see each other soul to soul and you can introduce me to your beautiful mom!
