A month ago: Mom

I promise, I didn't forget to remember Mom's death day.  I will admit, it wasn't commemorated like normal though.  It was the day after the eclipse, and the first day back to normal things after spring break and so I didn't have time to do it normally.  It also took a while to get her flowers; I tried adding them to the grocery order and they didn't get in the order for some reason.

But I did eventually get the flowers, and they filled the kitchen with a beautiful aroma, reminding me of her.

There's also been a song stuck in my head, Untitled Hymn by Chris Rice.  It probably helps that I've played it often this past month.  It's the last verse that gets me though:

With your final heartbeatKiss the world goodbyeThen go in peace, and laugh on Glory's side
And fly to JesusFly to JesusFly to Jesus and live
