Today was my mom's birthday.
I hate her birthday, especially when it falls on Easter. The first birthday after she died fell on Easter and after everyone left after I hosted I cried for an hour. I hate that Grace doesn't remember her. I hate that she never saw the boys. I hate that I'm left with a father who I only see because I work with him and has a wife who treats me like sh!t. I hate that her brother died without ever getting in touch with us and now her entire family is gone. And with that, Happy Easter, y'all.
Re: Today was my mom's birthday.
Oh lauren! Hugs to you! Thinking about you and your family today. I am so sorry.
I love this book:
http://www.amazon.com/Letters-Motherless-Daughters-Courage-Healing/dp/0385315228/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1333918657&sr=8-1
It's not the typical "how to grieve" book. I promise. Just letters from women who have lost their mothers. I get some good cries out of it---but good cries.
Sorry for your loss. I hate being part of this "club", as my sister and I call it.
