Mom's kisses are still so sweet

Mom's kisses are still so sweet.

My mom just left to go back to her 50 hour a week crappy job. She spent over two weeks here just loving life in Misawa and being part of the Ferguson family. Only thing was we were not all that fun. So... she had to play Mommy to me just like old times. I couldn't had made it through some of those days without her. I was almost begging her to come back and stay with me again while Andrew was gone for the next month (six weeks to four months). This next TDY/DET will be hard on me trying to be strong without him by my side. Him being gone and me being alone and saying for the first time I don't want to do it - I have always been a really strong person and been able to do it like a champ. So... for Mother's Day I sent her a really cute Happy Mothers Day hallmark E- Card and she responded with this:

My Dearest Daughter,
You are one of the strongest people I know. You Love your family and will fight for any of them from people that hurt them thru word or deed. Now you are faced with one of those times when you do not have your husbands closeness to help ward off those words or deeds. You will do well! My love and faith in you will always be there to help you!! If need be I am only a phone call away. You can scream and holler at me but remember YOU are strong. Maybe going back to church, whether it be the one you went to before or the chapel, will help you feel more peace within yourself. Your children are also your support, just keep you head up and go on!! I love you very much, Mom

So... If anyone out there hears the screams and hollers... you know I'm on the phone talking with my mommy on the phone and everything is alright.

Thanks for the kisses MOM!!
