My mom burnt everything.
We would laugh about it because my mom always seemed
to burn only "one side" of everything.
Whenever we sat down to dinner, all 7 of us kids would immediately
pick up our food to look at the bottom of what she cooked.
You see my mom, who complained that she didn't have time to cook
with 7 kids in tow, would turn over every item on the plate so that we
did NOT see the burnt side
This was no small feat when serving french fries.
She's NOT here this Mother's Day.
She passed just a few weeks ago after a long, long, long
imprisonment in Alzheimer's.
She didn't remember she was a Mom for at least the last 5 years
which for her must have been the hardest memory to lose.
Every day is a GIFT and for that we should ALWAYS be Grateful
because…
We NEVER known "What" will be our "Last Memory".
