My mother was a very loving but hard mom. But now I understand why she was so hard ..She wanted my sister and I to be strong and independent. Growing up she was so loving and thoughtful. Made sure we had everything we needed. We were very spoiled kids. We were always in style when we got our school clothes she never wanted us to look bad.. don't get me wrong we had our bad times with our mother too but she was always there for us when we needed her. She never told us when she got sick so we didn't have much time to say goodbye at all.. That's What Hurts the Most. I love and miss my mother with my whole heart. Rest in peace my sweet mother... I'll see you when I see you
