I was at work and I looked up through the big window and I saw you standing there. I was mad because you were grounded and were supposed to be at your grandmas. I came out and started fussing at you , like I always did. You smiled that big beautiful smile and said ,"Mama , don't be mad. I was going crazy at grandmas. I had to sneak out." I kept fussing and you said, "You cant be mad at me I am Freebirds son." That made me laugh. I wasn't even mad anymore. You start telling me how you are starving to death and asked me for one dollar so you can go to Jack In The Box. I started complaining about not having any money and you look at me with those big droopy eyes. I went to go get my wallet and I give you around $3.75. You started freaking out saying how awesome a mother I was because you were gonna get three things from Jack In The Box. You said, "Your the greatest mom in the world, thank you thank you." You turned to leave and I say ,"Didn't you forget something?" I didn't have to say another word , you knew what I was talking about. You came back and leaned over the meat case and kissed my cheek and said, "I love you mama , goodbye." I told you to be home by the time I got there and you left......
***That was the last time I ever saw you alive son. I'm so thankful that I have those beautiful words. I feel so fortunate because so many times when we lose someone we never have the chance to even say goodbye. ***
