It's my second without my mother, who is spending this one with God. I even have moments when suggested guilt slaps at me for not calling her. And then I remember--she left for home in June, 2008.
Do you suppose they celebrate Mother's Day in heaven? Probably not, but if they do, I'll bet it's all about God in a way that makes perfect sense of it.
You know—it was He who gave mom’s radar, eyes in the back of their head, a mother’s prerogative, insight, discernment, motivational skills, fashion sense, providential giving, wisdom, the silent treatment, and loads and loads of love.
See? A lot like God.
My mother loved me tons. It was obvious and I’m thankful.
