My favorite quote

Part of the price of getting to where you are going is leaving where you are.

That has been "my quote" for as long as I can remember. Once upon a time there was something called potshots  in the local comic section in the Sunday paper. I cut that quote out about 12 years ago, I still have that little scrap of paper. It's important for me to remember that sometimes moving on is hard to do but it's important.

I recently ready a quote that goest like this:

"Missing someone isn't about how long it's been since you've seen them. It's about the very moment when you're doing something and wishing they were right there with you."

This made me cry becuase I  know exactly how this feels. I can't count the number of times that I've had this feeling becuase I wanted my mother to hear about something that had happened with my girls but when I reach for the phone I remember that she isn't on the other end of the line.

I've remarked to a friend a few times that my mom is somewhere looking down laughing beucase of something the girls did.
