My mom rocks. Really she does. She has a shirt that says so.
I am an only child. Her world revolved around me. Which I still don't understand. I couldn't imagine. I have an immense amount of love, joy and passion for my three children. I couldn't imagine putting all of that energy in to ONE child. Sheesh. No wonder why she was so tired all the time!!
My mom loves Hubby like he is her own child. It's amazing their relationship. They have this connection that goes beyond a mother-in-law. They have lengthly conversations over a few beers long after I have retreated to bed. I have no idea what they talk about. Maybe I don't want to know. But I think it helps both of them understand me. If that's at all possible.
My mom also loves my kids to no end. They call her Grandma Grandma. Yep, say it twice. Aili named her that and it has stuck. We think it's darned cute. And we haven't heard of another one.
And that is very fitting for my mom. One of a kind. She is a riot. Will make you laugh until your sides hurt. But will be there with a huge hug when times get tough. She will always take care of us, in so many ways that I can't number.
Love ya Ma!!
