(in loving memory of my mother, Mila Granic, February 18, 1941-December 20, 1995) "I love you mom" you say but you wait until Mother's Day. That is all fine and dandy. Mom likes "I love you" more than candy. Whatever you're doing now can wait. Say "I love you mom" before it's too late. Don't wait until tomorrow or next week or any other. Now is the time to say "I love you" to your mother. Say "I love you mom." Do it now while she's still alive to take a bow or plenty of tears you will shed after she's long gone and dead. "I love you mom" you say but only on Mother's Day. Promise yourself your mom will hear "I love you mom" 365 days a year.
Reason for writing:
I never said "I love you" mom before my mother died of ovarian cancer. God forbid something should happen, but you never know and your mother just may not be alive tomorrow. Hope this inspires you to say "I love you" to your mother every single day for the rest of her life.
