Wish I had read this before I answered my phone this morning. 
BadGirl said:I wish I could get a phone call from my mom. I miss her bugging the crap outta me at times. I have an old phone message that I play periodically just so that I can hear her voice again.
I wish I at least had that. You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to BadGirl again.

My father cut my mother off after me (imagine that 
) so she never had the 10 kids she wanted. Growing up she was always the neighborhood mom. We always had some stray kid living with us. Now that my brother, sister and I are all grown I'm the only one close enough for her to have regular contact with. Needless to say I get ALL of her love and attention (I've learned to put it in such a nice way 
). Any time anyone needs a mom; my mom seriously always needs someone to mother. My crusty ol' dad won't let her get a foster child or anything.

This thread made me cry, too. God, I miss that woman!
My mother passed on March 13, 1999 at 3:25 am (Friday the 13th!). Fortunately, I was with her but some of my siblings didn't make it in time to be with her. Since then, not one single day has gone by that I haven't thought of her and wished her back.. We were celebrating my sister's birthday not long after my mother's death and when it came time to blow the candles out, my little nephew (6 yrs) said “I'll blow the candles out for her, I know what she would wish for anyway” we all looked at him and asked what would she wish for? He looked at us like we were the dumbest people on earth and said “to have memom back” We all started crying....

Seems like we all take the most important things in life for granted... Until they are no longer with us and it's too late even though we may not realize that is what we're doing. Fortunately for me, I didn't do that, I talked to my mom everyday even when I really couldn't afford to call. We were so close. Now that she's gone what's left of the family is so f'd up it's disgusting.
