My mom is coming to visit this weekend! It's funny how relationships with moms change over the years but still manage to stay the same. I remember how well my mom took care of us. A few images in my mind stand out...
A laundry basket on one hip
A baby on the other
Busy from 5 a.m. till bedtime
That's my mother.
Reminding me to wear a coat
Making 8 or 9 school lunches
She sometimes gets a little angry
But she loves us bunches.
Napping while we're all at school
Baking that ward-famous bread
Teaching us to do what's right
Making sure we go to bed.
Now we live so far away
I don't see her every day...
I miss having someone to take care of me!
