My mom has been gone for 25 years and I still miss her. 1998 Google got started Viagra got approved by the FDA, Apple unveiled the I MAC and Bill Clinton was president. The country and the world were a different place. My mom was 84 when she died and had seen a lot. She buried two husbands and a son. I think she felt she had done and given enough. A coup;e of years before she had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. I regret not spending more time with her but I thought she would live forever. I didn’t realize how many people loved and respected her until she passed. When I miss her now and start thinking about her I think she would recognize this place anymore. She would sit and wonder how a man like Donald Trump could be President. She would have loved Obama and adored his wife. She would be quite upset and worried about what we would be leaving her grandchildren with. She would wonder how all the things she saw us go to war about or march in the streets to change would have people trying to revive. She would wonder how there would be so many guns. She would remember that I owned many guns at one time. She never had to read about kids killing kids in schools not in a war zone but in what she would have thought was one of the safest places for our kids. My mom was a very smart person but as she aged all she wanted to be was happy and she deserved that. I’m glad she isn’t here to see how bad we have screwed everything up, but she would still look for the good. Maybe she can pull some strings up there and get things straightened out around here. Those of you whose mom is still around don’t wait till Mother’s Day to tell her how much you love her do it every day. That means guys and gals. If you don’t you’ll end up with regrets and sitting around trying to write a blog that she might like. I know my mom would probably like it, but would point out my grammatical mistakes as well as spelling errors. I don’t think I ever did anything that my Mom didn’t support she would worry in silence. I could probably still use a little advice now. I miss you Mom and I know Janet does as well. This is FATS and ANTONIA saying HAPPY MOTHERS DAY from Medellin, Colombia.
