Happy Mother's Day!

My mom has been gone three years this September but I never let a day pass by that I don't think of her and dad. Dad passed away in 1985 at the tender age of 68 and mom left us in 2006. She was heart broken at his passing and then battled Parkinson's Disease and spent eleven years in a care center. Her last years were anything but glorious or easy. This is a small mother's day tribute to her. The music is by one of my favorite artists, Carly Simon. Not all her lyrics ring true to our personal family dynamics, but I like this song. Mom and Dad, I love you and miss you both very much!
