It's been 15 years and while she and I didn't always see eye to eye, we became best friends and true companions. :)Melissa Keirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10247037321769755660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5742415355016995707.post-44967700384688941722014-05-12T15:07:00.529-04:002014-05-12T15:07:00.529-04:00Wonderful post, Gemma...thanks for sharingWonderful post, Gemma...thanks for sharingAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12937328419133796333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5742415355016995707.post-30537501185550363422014-05-12T14:44:54.285-04:002014-05-12T14:44:54.285-04:00Hi Judy,

It's lovely you have reminders of your mom, and wonderful memories, too.

There are so many wonderful stories I could tell you about my mother, but I'll just tell you two. lol<br /><br />When my sister and I started dating, we would double-date. Mom set a curfew, and we always made it home on time, but in the summer time, we sat out in the car talking and laughing. Mom told the boys ahead of time if she turned on the porch light it was time for us to come in, or she was going to come out in her night gown and shot gun. There was no shot gun, and she would never come outdoors in a night gown. lol The guys adored her. <br /><br />The second thing that I always remember is when I was out late I would always come in the house and go right to mom's room. I would tell her every detail of the night, and she listened. Poor mom, usually, only had a 2 or 3 hours before she had to get up to go to work. She never ever complained. <br /><br />When I think about my wonderful mother, I realize what a spoiled kid I was back then.
