I'll Never Forget

Friday's Feast got me thinking. I will never forget ...

... waking up on Mother's Day, 1996, to the phone call from my brother: "Well, Shosa, your mamma's gone to be with Jesus."

... the other losses I've had: brother, sister in law, dad, nephew, 2 neices neice, 2 dogs, dear family friends, a dozen high school classmates.

... the labour and birth of my son in 1992 and how glad I was that my mother could be present.

... the passion of courtship with my husband - even 25+ years later!

... the northern lights in the Northwest Territories

... seeing grafitti on my garage door from an irate neighbor whom I turned in for something rather trivial

... being kicked repeatedly in an elevator by, what turned out to be, a mentally disabled man.

... my son's birth, salvation, baptism, first stitches, first shut out, second stitches, first girlfriend, third stitches, first time driving, first solo, last hug.
