One more.

Today, a friend of mine asked me: Do you ever wish you could bring your mom back for a day? What would you do?

That’s funny I was just talking about that today with my dad and brother. I would LOVE to have one more day with her. I would just want it to be me and her, sitting up on her bed staring out at the view of the water and talking to her and with her about EVERYTHING. I would take TONS of pictures with her, and video tape the 2 of us, and record her voice, that’s what you miss you know, their voice. I’d also just want time to nap, you know like when I was a child, just lay in her arms and have her run her fingers through my hair while I rest my head on her chest and listen to her heart beat, how I miss that sound. It’d be a great day, of course I’d be sure to let her know how much I love her and how much she does, and will always mean to me.
Oh, just one more day, one more day of just me and my mom, hearing her say "I love you baby." having her remember me, seeing her long golden hair, her shining emerald eyes, full of life again, feeling her worn, strong, artistic steady hands, hearing her voice and being wrapped in her safe, safe arms. I'd make her watch "ELF" with me too. Oh favorite movie. :)
Not having to have her slip away into a coma, but just slip away into a beautiful white light...not having her forget who I am, having my MOM back just one more time.
Christmas, how I loathe you, you son of a bitch. :P
I know if I ever got one more day with her, I'd just want another one, but for now, I'd take even a minute. Life without her is getting harder, not easier.
