a great loss...
"And then, an insight: This is what we lose when our mothers die. We lose the person who rejoices in our accomplishments and agonizes in our struggles; the person who thinks we should win every race, woo every beau or belle, and succeed at every job; the person who knows what is best for us, or thinks she does; the person who brags about us in our absence and offers expert advice in our presence. In sum, we lost the person who is our biggest fan and our most ardent defender." - Peggy Ekerdt

Too true! But know you have a similar loss through any loved one.... know that your family can still stand in that spot, not replacing, but still loving. We love you.
