There are some moments that stop me in my tracks. My heart skips a little, and I catch my breath. Tonight was one of those nights. I was sitting in my chair, getting ready to watch football, and in walks Lil Man. In his hand was a picture. This picture to be exact. Those who have been reading while will recognize it. It is of my mother. One of the few that I have. It sits on my dresser. Always.
Well, tonight Lil Man walks in with the picture and this is the conversation that ensued:
LM: "who is this?"
ME: : "that's my Mommy, Grandma Suzy"
LM: "I wanna see her"
ME: "You can't baby, she died and now she's gone"
LM: "what do you mean died? Who made her dead?
ME: "She was very sick baby, no one made her dead. We all die eventually"
LM: "I wanna see her. I'll get an airplane to take me"
ME: "no baby, you can't see her. If you went to see her you'd be dead and i'd never see you again"
LM: "is she your Mommy, mommy?"
ME: "yes, that's my mommy"
LM: "I love her. I love you Mommy"
Some moments just so ........ *sigh*
I can't even find any words through my tears right now. So for you Mom, i'll play one of your favorite songs. And how ironic it is.
