As I reflect upon the times that I spent with my mother doing the simple things, my heart fills with joy. These are the instances that I miss the most when I think about my childhood. Her constant love and care were ever present, surrounding me like a warm blanket. My life has not been the same since my mother's passing. Holding on to the pleasant memories and the many lessons that she taught brings me the strength to move on. If I had one more day on earth with my beloved mother, I would do the simple things like talking, laughing, taking her for a drive the way I used to do on the weekends, helping her with her shopping, and sitting with her to enjoy a nice meal. This book describes such a day.
