Please everyone call your mom to let her know how much you love her. Please do it for my mom, and to help me show my mom how much I love her. I lost my mom 8 yrs ago today, and I love for other people to let their moms know they are loved. I can't tell my mom.
My mom is up with the creator watching over everyone she loved. Please just take a minute to call and say I love you.

Thank you for your time
and be very safe.

I lost my Mom July 22, 1994. She was my best friend and I still miss her to this day.

My advice is even if you do not get along with your Mom, call and tell her you love her. You never know when they will leave you. My Mom was only 64.

My mom passed away May 14th 2004 and I wish I had told her I loved her more often. We had very rocky times when I was a teenager but as I got older she did become my best friend. I still talk to her every day, in my heart.

Thank you for reminding us about someone we may take for granted as always being there. I lost my dad just a few short months ago and I think of him every day. Yet I feel like he is still with me in many ways, and I dream about him almost every night. I'm so sorry for your loss, and again, thanks for your caring message.

I lost my mother on March 6, 1996, just a few months after my 9th birthday. Anniversaries are still pretty tough, but I have learned to never take anyone's presence for granted. This is a wonderful reminder to make sure that you never leave anything unsaid.

Thank you for your thoughtful post. I lost my mom on March 24th, 2008. I miss her all the time, but have learned to try to move forward. Times are still hard around the holidays.

Now, my dad is battling for his life and I don't know how this year will end.

No matter what parent you have left, or both, tell them you love and miss them. When they are gone, there is no going back.

Thanks for the reminder.

I talk to both of my parents nearly every day, and see them at least once a week, usually more. I always tell them I love them, when I talk to them on the phone. I once called right back after I hung up without saying it! I hug and kiss on them both when I see them. I love to do things with my parents.

My Mom passed last year but I often told her I loved her.


Now my sis has become my mother and I tell her I love her, too.

I can relate to how you feel. I lost my Mom in January of 2006. There is a day that goes by that I don't miss her, or think of something I would love to be able to tell her.

Thank you for the reminder never to forget to tell those we love that we love them. Both my parents are gone, but we did that very often, and I'm glad we did. It's all too easy to get sloppy about that.

And what a lovely "memorial" for your Mom.

Day after tomorrow would have been Mama's 96th birthday, so she has been very much on my mind lately.

A few weeks ago three women came in to eat, and the grandmother looked so much like Mama that I dropped the stack of menus I was holding. As far as I know all our family settled in Ohio or Ontario, and these lady's were from FL, but she even sounded like Mama. Once I got over the shock it was kind of nice to see her double, but I resisted the urge to hug her as they left. Don't need strangers thinking I'm crazy.

I got to spend the last two days with my mom for the wedding. Even made her teary eyed when I played her and dad's song. I even got to spend some time with my grandma too. That was wonderful! She's been ill and we didn't think she'd make the 4 hour trip so it was great to see her too.

Thank you all who shared their thoughts.
I've tried to leave this msg on the anniversary every year since she passed. We should always call our parents and let them know that we love them, but today is my mom's day. August 13th my mom would have been 58. I have such a hard time imagining my mom that old. She passed away at 50.

For me, it makes me feel better if others call their moms just becase I can't. The thought of a mom getting a call out of the blue from their child just to hear 'I love you' makes me feel so much better about the anniversary. I call it 'love your mom' day. It's been long enough I don't cry all day anymore. I do cry once or twice usually on the anniversary, but that is usually when I ask someone to tell their mom they love them.

I thank you all so much
I feel like the more people who call their mom, shows my mom how much I love her. It just makes me feel better. Thank you so much.

I am sorry for all you who have lost your moms (and dads) I still have my dad, and I fear loosing him. *Hugz* to all of you.

Please keep sharing mom stories, it makes me happy.

Be safe

My mom passed away on Feb 15th 1998. We had known it was going to happen for several weeks prior to her passing and in a way it gave us all the oppurtunity to say good-bye to her. We all, my brother, my two sister's and myself were with her when she passed and it is something that will stay with me forever. Yes mother's are really important and we should remember to tell them that whenever we have the oppurtunity..You never know what tomorrow will bring.

I lost my mom 2 years ago Halloween. She always loved Halloween, so I'm glad we get to think of her specially on that day. I take her birthday, March 30, to remind people to call their moms. I still talk to her a lot. I hope she's proud of my kids.
