She's My Favorite Girl (And Happy Mother's Day)
Sunday is Mother's Day.
And my mom is gone from here.
I struggle to find the words to express the profound longing I feel this time of year. So I won't—not this time.
Instead, I'll look at her pictures, open her jewelry box (miraculously, it still smells like her), and say a prayer thanking God for the time I did have her in my life.
I love you, Mommy.
And miss you tremendously.
I encourage you to head over to Parenting.com, where a tribute I wrote in honor of my mom, Bettye Millner, after she passed away, is being posted (CLICK HERE to read it).
And for my MyBrownBaby crew, Happy Mother's Day...

I read this article twice. It is a lovely tribute to your mom and a fitting reminder that we should take time to tell our loved ones how much we care. Bettye lives on in you and Mari and Lila. Happy Mother's Day!
