Today is my Moms Birthday. Its happened now 4 times since she has died. Every time it catches me off guard. I start to really miss her around the mention of General Conference. Then it lasts a week or two. I think this time of year was so fun when she was alive. We have 4 birthdays this week! And usually Conference. That is a lot of celebrating. It seems to be harder at the times that were happy and fun. Not the times that were hard and sad.
I was thinking about if she was still alive today that I would call her and tell her Happy Birthday, or maybe text her, or face book her. But then I remembered that she would not text. Her cell phone was large and she liked it that way. She hated change, so she would not get a new one. So, she probably wouldn't be on face book either. I guess not much would have changed, I would still just call her. Which would be ok with me. I have wished a million times that she would have taken her phone with her. I have lots of questions, and need a lot of advice.
So, Happy Birthday Mom, I still miss you.
