Valentine's day

[greatbear]

This holiday is a rough one for me. It comes four days after Mom's birthday, and we had always treated it as sort of an extension of the birthday celebration and an excuse to have yet another really nice meal. So, this brings up memories of all those good times and how they are gone now. It's the same when I see other things that remind me of her, like some pictures I was looking at yesterday evening, or when I see her name.

Mom's name is Valentine.

Phil, it is worse for sons that had a harder time with their mothers than you and I did. I miss my mother something awful but I always feel blessed that I knew her. I'm sure you feel the same way. I miss her terribly but I wouldn't change a thing.
