Tanya texted today asking for one of my mom’s cookie recipes.  I have it electronically, but it was easier to grab it from her recipe tin that I have in the cabinet.  I found it quickly and texted it to her.  Then I started to go through the recipes and found myself missing my mom terribly.  It’s a strange experience because I was with her 10 minutes ago. In fact, I could walk downstairs and see her right now, but it wouldn’t assuage my grief and sadness.   

I’m fighting back tears. I miss her so much.
