I thought I should mark the occasion. I tend not to get too excited about these made up holidays, but I don't want to be a stick in the mud, so...Happy Mother's Day to me and Happy Mother's Day to Mom. I also can't get excited about this "holiday" in particular since it is just a reminder of what I have lost. Alzheimer's gives us a chance to grieve for someone's death before they die. It's exhausting to be in mourning year after year. BUT, since I don't know how long my mom will actually be among us, I take whatever joys I can get, whenever I can get them. I love you, Mom.
