Today would be my mother's 59th birthday. I never realy thought about her becoming an old woman, even though I always knew she would be an awesome grandma if I ever have kids. It's about 3 and a half years since she passed, it doesn't feel that that long, but sometimes it feels longer. I almost called today to wish her 'Happy Birthday', though as soon as I had the thought it hit me that she won't be answering the phone.
Today's been an odd day. My dad came over after work to drop off some of my stuff that we got out of his storage unit yesterday, he didn't mention anything about mom's birthday. Not a word. He did mention something yesterday about going to church, refering to the service the day before, but I usually tune out any religion talk as he attempts to subltly guilt me for not going every Sunday.
Either way, for me today is not Star Wars Day (may the 4th be with you), nor is it Kent State Rememberacne Day (40th anniversary this year), it is my Mom's birthday!
