Commited Obedience To Mom.

Must have been 25,married,drove a car(a Nash),when Ma called.-She called all 3 of us daughters,when she wanted to go somewhere-but all at once???We appeared all 3 of us!!! That was security to her.One day she specificlly called me.At the time, I took my youngest,3yr,old with me,"Ok,Ma,I`ll take you to the bank,then to the drug store.There was a new bank,but opposite of where the drug store was.(SHE WAS IN CHARGE)...While in the bank,I had done the hymlick manuver(?) on my son,a life saver got stuck in his throat,that Ma gave him!(I wasn`t used to going the way I did,from the new bank).Afterwards,I pulled into the parking lot,(from the opposite side,of the 2 buildings-something new to me).My mother gave me money to get a bottle of Imperial.-something my dad had to have a slug of,before a meal good for the appetite.(AND,It was the day after New Years).The drug store person said,"wanna bag?"."Nah.that`s ok",I answered....There I was,bottle neath my arm,going out to the car.No one was there to remind me,I went to the other side of the building,to the other parking lot.-(dah)!!!Fury! Ashtonished look,possibly terror...(still with the bottle neath my arm,after New Years)! My car gone.I thought of car-jacking.-But ,who`d want my mother?-And my kid?Immediately,I went with one arm flalling all over,the bottle,without a bag,neath my arm.......,"Hurry,hurry, call the police -car`s gone,kid in it, Ma ,too"!!!!!!Drug store person,says,"OK!OK"...Meanwhile,I quickly walked down the block, to a few houses(going no farther than 2,& it was too much for me -especially with that bottle under my arm)to see if anyone saw my car,the looks were awful-didn`t they know I was in a bad situation,here.-Not one response!!! I went back to the store,almost dropping that darn bottle,-"Have you talked to the police,have you found them"???I asked,still in a panic mode & hiding the bottle behind me so as not to be charged again...(I thought,that`s ALL I needed)."Did you find them"?I asked once more.....He said,"Does your mother speak English"? -"Barely".I told him.Come with me,taking me to the "other" parking lot.Oh,oh,I thought.I may have done a woops...."Thank you,for finding her,my son & the car"(I hung my head,talking under my breath,trying to face my mother,just KNOWING what she`d say)....I opened the door as though nothing happened,& I sure wasn`t in a mood to explain.(so......I listened to my mother curse "some man,that wanted to get in the car,I no let him in,I not know him & I keep window up"-"I know Ma,I know".-"He,crazy guy!!!!What took you so long-you gone half hour for bottle of whiskey"???-"Can we go to store? I need catsup"....."tomorrow Ma-tomorrow!!!!!!

We begin to know the meaning of mother, when we become one. I am ONE FOR SURE.. I know what it is, and I still have my mom around.

You have a good mum too at your end. Seems like you need lots of patience ha???

Whatever it takes, I would reiterate one fact, we are here, the way we are, no matter how weak or strong we may be, because of our mothers...

BLESS THEM ALLkiss
You are such a great story teller. I was transported back in time. And so funny.
