Mother's day is fast approaching and with it an emptiness of knowing our child is gone. Each year my two sons Brandon and Jason would cook a meal for me. They did everything from setting the table to washing the dishes. Mother's Day 2010 was the last one with my Jay; he made some concoction that looked like "fish scrambled eggs". Brandon leaned over and said "Mom this is horrible". I said "I know eat it anyway". This memory will forever bring joy to my heart.
Cards were never Jay's thing; especially a "mushy" one. Mother's Day cards were always goofy; except for this one that he gave me May 2010. It is a treasured last gift from my Jay.
