Mothers Day 2010

Well, it's almost that time of year again...Mother's Day.  sssssigh
It used to be a more important date for me, but now it's associated with a hint of sadness and memories.  Not for the fact that I've never had a child of my own (do Chihuahua's count?) as I still feel the same way about having children.  But, that it's been 9 years since I've lost my mother and I often think of her.  The pain of the loss has eased of course, but so many times you get caught off guard by sights, smells, sounds and so on that remind you of the ones that have passed on. It's amazing how often she and dad have been in my dreams, most nights actually. 
She may be gone, but she'll always be my mother, never to be replaced by anyone else!
