I have a friend whose youngest child moved out recently at the age of 22. The Mom is still crying from the empty nest. I think it's hard for those who do not have someone 2 spend Mother's Day with. I see this lady on Sat. (day we go to church). I bought her a card & a box of chocolates. We do not have 2 be family by blood 2 love each other. I wish I could encourage you on such a day, too. (hugs) -from Glory (Obi_Have's wife) I am on this group looking 4 good mother's day poems to put in her card
