Mother's Day. What can be said that hasn’t already been pressed and ironed for centuries? I guess it all goes to how close you are and how much you appreciate her. In addition to carrying you around like a bowling ball in her tummy for the biggest part of a year, wiping your private parts after nursing you through infancy. The formative years, teaching you to blow your nose, use your fork, tell time and tie your shoes. Sending you to school and even helping with homework. Waiting up at night after you have your first date and first car. Sending you off to college or work. Holding you tight when your first love has dumped you for someone else. Loving and sometimes, raising your children. If you don’t have it by now, you never will. This Sunday, what you say will be more meaningful than any gift from Amazon, Walmart or the florist. Don’t ever forget that. if she’s no longer here, you already know.
