Maybe it was a few years ago when the last of us got married, or maybe when her first grandchild was born. [...]

Oh, what a sweet post! I have so many wonderful memories of my mom wearing her slip and getting ready for church–putting on her makeup. She was a “Mommy” in every sense of the word. Your posts make me tear up every time.
