It was a wonderful feeling sitting beside my mom in church after all we've been through these last few months.
I don't typically go to the ultra con church I attended today, but the service was great, too....Lots and lots of singing, but there was preaching too. ....I don't like to go to churches where there are 1 hour and 30 minutes singing, 12 minutes of preaching, then 45 minutes more of singing. A few weeks ago I visited a church and that is literally what took place!

So glad you got to be with your mom, tamor.

Whew! I have to agree with you there TalkLady. I wouldn't want to go to services like that on a regular basis either!!

Yes it is, Scott. No matter how old we get, we still love receiving affirmation from our mothers.

Due to some situations ,I couldn't do for my mother what I would have liked to ,material wise but I did tell her I love her and appreciate her.
I see her when I can.

Bro. Hutchison, you seem like a great son and husband and dad too, I suppose. I miss my mother so much. I bought some flowers and made a nice arrangement for her grave. Mother's Day is a sad day for me when I think about my mom, but my son and my husband made it a good day...oh, yes, and the GOOD LORD made it a great day!!

That is more important than gifts or flowers. Just knowing that you remembered her and called to say I love you is what matters.

....All of us here can tell you are thankful for your wife!....Your speaking of her is a tribute to her and she should be thankful that you hold her in such high honor. Call your mom and visit her as often as you can..If mine were alive, I know where I would have been today and everyday, if possible.
