Remembering you always

Dear Mom,

It is March 1st again; a Thursday, and yes I am still working part time. I am at home thinking about you. My day is going by fast even though I am not really sure what I have accomplished all day. I guess this must be how Dad is feeling these days. He is sleeping a lot, with not much to motivate him. Danny, Marie and I are going to go over to his house and make some dinner. I think Collin and Shane will come along too. It is a still grey day, wet and muddy. The kind of day where you might have stayed in your night gown all day and doing a cross word or brushing up on your Readers Digest vocabulary.

Well, this year I wanted to thank you for getting up with me before school in the morning with a smile and a happy voice. I don't seem to have inherited your disposition in the morning at least. Collin gets up at 5:45am in the morning in order to catch the school bus. That is so early. Pat gets up with him almost all of the time. When I do, I wake him and go downstairs with a blanket over my head, hair all frizzed up and eyes barley open. I am sad to think of how he will remember me when he is old and grown.

I miss you mom and would love to have you hear to wake me in the morning.

Love,

Susie
