I sure wish she could come hang out with me for just a day! I miss her smell, her hands, her crazy driving, her screaming at "Puppy," her driving down on Saturdays with her entire kitchen in her Nova, cuddling next to her, sleeping in her oh so dark bedroom, enjoying her instant mashed potatos, her taking me to TG&Y shopping, her taking me to Baskin Robbins for gumball ice-cream, and watching her stand in the kitchen...and I'll never forget that when she slept over she always, conveniently, had to go to the bathroom just after breakfast, while we just happened to start cleaning up and doing dishes (guess she had every reason, it was like a vacation when she came over to sleep with us!).
She was the best and I am so fortunate to have had 15 years of pampering/spoiling by this incredible woman!
If I could just have one more day, I would sit on the couch next to her, hold her memorable hands, absorb her smell forever, and have my kids witness her gentle touch and love!
