My mother's name was Laura, she passed away in 1978 at the young age of 58. I loved my mother. My most precious memory of her is that she loved me! Always sacrificing, always patient, and always supporting whatever I wanted to do. Mother, was my great defender. When I wanted to learn to drive our car (a 1947 Chevy) at the young age of 12, my dad said NO!, but mother said, "Oh Bill, he's just curious, take him out to the car and show him how to shift the gears and where the pedals are." Dad did! I started driving alone at the age of 14! Mother would also insist dad take me to work with him on Saturdays. He was a mechanical draftsman. He taught me to draw when I was only seven there at his office each Saturday. Dad and I spent important time together; father and son, because mother encouraged us!
I remember when I first discovered little girls, and later, as a young teenage boy started to date, she would tell me before I left the house, "Melton, you be careful, those little girls can get you in trouble." I found out later in life how right she was! She did try to warn me. (LOL).
I'll bet you have some wonderful memories of your mother too. Today, whether they are living or they are deceased, we remember all our dear mothers. This is their day! HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! God, bless all you wonderful women. YOU are so very special, enjoy your day!
