before i forget

there are a few things i want to blog just to have something to look back on. sunday night my little cousin aj came over to my moms house at around 11pmish and we were chit chatting and he said ” ok well i have to go now” and he gave me a hug and while we were hugging he said, “Happy Mother’s Day, Laurie, I know you’re not a mom, but you’ll always be a mom to me”  dude. i cried. when aj was around 1-4 years old, his mom left him at our house and we raised him, me and my mom did. so that meant the world to me. i’m crying just thinking about it now. 

the guys went to the movies sunday night and as much as I wanted to go i couldn’t do it. you see 3 years ago on mothers day, I ended up in the hospital because I was hemorraging and that’s when my cancer ordeal started. I just couldn’t go. what if i go and something happens? history repeats itself?  i stayed home instead.  and nothing happened. yay!
