    I'm sorry to those who have lost their mothers in some way...particularly those in the past year.

    Mother,

    Although I can't see your face in my memory,

    I see your hair color in my children and grandchildren (big grins and giggles)

    I cannot remember how your voice sounded,

    But folks tell me I sing just like you!

    I hope you approve of my tattoo

    I got it to keep you alive and to give me an opportunity to tell people about you. I will not let you fade away.

    As the tattoo reads, so I say to you Mama, "Untill We Meet Again"

    Happy Mothers Day To All

    (((((Lady Lee)))) Thankyou Dear Heart, you are always in tune with the ones who need. You are a real gem!

    Last Tuesday my grandmother died - she would have been 99 in June. My JW mother arranged for her funeral which according to my mother's thinking means you don't even call your daughter to let her know.

    My mother isn't a part of my life anymore. Most of the time I know I am better off without her. But every now and then something reminds me of the way things should have been.

    I made many of my mother's mistakes while raising my children a la JWism. My oldest daughter, who has children, says I am an awesome grandmother and has forgiven me for my many mistakes.

    I am blessed.

    My mother will never have the honor of the love her grandchildren and now great-grandchildren.

    What a sad loss for her because love is such a healing force.

    Mommy,

    My first mothers day without you..I don't have the words to describe how much I wish we celebrated mother's day all of these years. I didn't need a special day to show you I loved you but I bet you did. You were my mother everyday of the year, day in and day out, if I needed you and even when I thought I didn't. And now tomorrow I will bring flowers to your grave and pray to God to wake up from the nightmare I'm in. Wherever you are I love you, and will be giving you my love and respect in the best way I know how tomorrow, and everyday...

    this was a great idea..I could write pages about my mom, things I want to tell her but paying honor to our mothers is so important..I realize it now so much more..my advice to everyone is resolve any problems you have with your mother, no matter what they are because when they're gone everything you didn't say will seem unbearable.

    Zeroday, I'm with you.

    Dear Mother-

    Thank you for abandoning me at the age of 7 because you wanted to start life over without ever being a mother to me or seeing me as your daughter ever again.

    No surprise you won't be hearing from me tomorrow, even if I had your number.

    Sincerely,

    A great mom

    Dear Mom,

    Happy Mother's Day, even though you don't celebrate it. You're a mother, and you were good to me & sis during the time we still lived at home. We went separate ways and eventually we left the religion that you and dad taught us.

    I've been frustrated that a difference of opinion over religion has overshadowed everything else.

    I don't know exactly how you feel about me & sis now. Are you anxious, or upset? Perhaps you've given up on us as "lost to Satan's world"? Or perhaps you're fearful to show your true loving feelings toward us because of what the organization would say or do to you? The mystery is part of the wall that is built up between us.

    I know you and dad seem to be happy being JW's, or maybe you just have been there so long that it's all you can see. In any case, I wish you happiness in your remaining years.
