The things I miss

So as I think about my mom I realize there are so many things I miss!  Let me just give a list:

1. I miss her calling....Yep I know it's hard to believe for some of you but I do!
Her famous calls..."where are you going?"  "what ya doing?" and lastly "when you coming home?"  All said with a high pitch shrill!
2.  I miss her sending cards like she did when I was a kid!  Yes I know very hallmark, but they meant a lot and left a major impression!
3.  I miss the way she would come over when Evan was sick and feed him ice chips!  He would only take them from her....It was very sweet to watch! 
4.  I miss.......I miss a lot!! Life is going to be challenging from here on out!  I can't call her when Evan does or says anything silly!  She won't be there when we take Evan to Kindgarten or when he graduates 8th grade! 

I remember thinking the night before she died about all the things I forgot to ask!  Like how to make her famous chocolate chip cookies.  She made awesome cookies!! 



This is just one of the minor yet major things that have crossed my mind and hurt my heart!  I know that she can see me and maybe she will leave me her recipe through osmosis!  Along with all her wisdom that I didn't believe in until I had a kid of my own, but that's another story!!
