Today is Mom's 70th birthday. I'd love to be able to wish her a "Happy Birthday Mom!" but to do so over the phone or in person will likely get me scoffed at and treated to a barrage of negativity. Mom isn't, to say the very least, a happy woman. (But, dear Universe, you already know that). And so I offer my "Happy Birthday Mom!" wishes to you, dear Universe, in hopes that one day a greater power will help her out of the dark and into the light (a power neither of us seem to have).
Sincerely & earnestly,
~Jo
(We're heading over later with her gifts and a Boston Cream Pie, her favorite. She's passed on our breakfast/lunch/dinner invite at her restaurant of choice or here at our place).
*Update: Dear Universe, that was a great start! Thank you!
(We headed over to Mom's around 4pm. She was in a good mood and liked her gifts. At 5pm came home with us for dinner and her good mood continued. When I walked her home afterwards, she thanked me, told me dinner was very nice and she had a good time. WHEW!)

Just remember, all these little attempts (though attempts seems like too light of a word to use, perhaps challenges, searching, seeking the answer, valuing her happiness....etc...etc..!) all these attempts you make to have a relationship with and to make your mother happy are not going unobserved! You are getting stars in your crown! It's going to be too heavy for you to carry one of these days....all the stars in your crown!
Love ya and thinking of you!
