your mamma......

ok, so my sister-in-law who called yesterday about the uc/uk game siad something that keeps coming back to me......that no one will ever love you the way that your mother loved you...not your children, not your spouse...not your siblings and certainly not your friends.......and she told me how lucky i was to still have my mother....and that she misses her mother nearly every day......gentle readers, this was hard for me to hear, because this same said woman seemed to go out of her way to make me crazy.....but then, i was NOT her child...and though she did seem to go our of her way to make her own children crazy....she still loved them purely and deeply.....and i was sad for her loss in that regard.....
