This was absolutely beautiful @hanshotfirst and I'm honored for the mention. (Particularly because mother's day is exceptionally difficult for me, my mother passed away in 2010 and well my child's father isn't a particularly pleasant fellow, my sister pretty much had to explain to her what mother's day is this week so little things really matter).
I would like to mention two of the best mom's ever, my absolute very best friends...
@seer and @howellogic
I don't want to get into personal information without consent but they're epic bad ass warrior mom's, trust me.
I am so sorry for your loss. It sounds like you have a good person to lean on in your sister. I bet she leans right back on you in return.
Happy Mother's Day!
