I Have Random Thoughts
This is my first year to have Mothers Day without my mother. She passed this last December. I am already have feelings of sadness missing her. What have some of you done the first year without your Mother?

My mom past not long ago, I think of all the funny things she would say and do, you know the good times we had. But I've never cried when she passed away. I don't understand why, but you might decide to cry and that's perfectly fine, the pain doesn't go away, we incorporate it into are selfs and carry on with are life's

@Footsugar123 Thanks, I purchased some flowers and took to her marker yesterday. My father passed away almost 4 years ago and after his passing I was with my mother almost daily. Some people told me I was too close to her is why the hurting continues. I have some vacation scheduled in a few weeks and everyone tells me that will be the best thing just to get away from everything for a few days.

@Shannon27 it might help get your mind off missing her for a while. I use to see mine everyday when we lived in the same area. Then her mother passed away and she moved to another state. The distance my be why I wasn't as emotional about her passing. I called her almost everyday to see how she was. As things got busier it would slip my mind and she sure didn't want me calling after her bedtime. Those things combined is I think why I didn't mourn. But I catch myself saying to myself I need to call mom. That's a bad feeling when I have to remind myself she is gone. Mother's day is for honoring your mother, for us and many others it's her memory and if we keep it alive inside ourselves, that I think is the best way of doing that. Have a great vacation and enjoy yourself.
