Lynn,
I am sending you hugs as I know how much you miss your mother.
Having such a happy relationship with someone brings a deeper sadness in our hearts.
Knowing how much she was loved by you did create the happy and healthy relationship you have with your daughter.
Happy Mother’s Day!

Sue,
I am so happy to hear that you realize that it’s not your fault that your relationship isn’t happy and healthy with your mother.
Sometimes mothers don’t realize the damage they can cause in their relationships with their daughters.
Have a blessed day!

Thank you for this beautiful post. It reiterates that a wonderful, positive, healthy mother/daughter relationship IS possible. Unfortunately, I do not share that with my mother, as she lacks all of the traits necessary for this to be possible. It has taken me well over 50 years to realize it will never happen, and is not my fault. Happy Mother’s Day and blessings to you, your mother and daughters, too!

My gorgeous mother died 32 years ago and I still cry for her once or twice a week – she was my everything. Now my everything is my even more gorgeous daughter. When my husband was dying she and her family bought a very large home so we could live with them and I wouldn’t be alone when he passed. Love begets love… Happy Mother’s Day to all.

Thank you for this wonderful post, Robin! I was so close to my Mom, and I miss her terribly. My Mom passed nine weeks ago, and the pain of missing her is still there. It will be a sad first Mother’s Day without Mom, but she taught me how to be a brave survivor too, no matter how painful something is. I have so many great memories though.

Jodie,

Funny how women who lack self confidence can raise their daughters to be confident!
I think they question their full potential and as enlightened daughters we give it back to them by telling them all things are possible, if you just believe!

How fun it is for you to be blogging together!

Hugs,
Robin

Catherine,

Yes I am lucky that my mother is still alive and doing very well.
So sorry your mom has passed.
Some day she will live on in my heart and memories too, but I hope I am remembered for being a terrific mom by my children.

Hugs,
Robin

I can totally relate, Robin!!
I always say that my mom did such a great job of raising me, yet she doesn’t have the greatest self confidence. I think having her as part of my blog has changed that somewhat, but it puzzles me quite a bit!!
XOXO

Happy Mother’s Day to you and your mom, Robin. What a beautiful homage and beautiful family.
You are very fortunate that your mom is still with you–it makes mother’s day more special.
My mother passed and this is a day for memories. This post lifted my spirits!
