Saturday my family got together. There's just the three of us now. I thought we were getting together to celebrate Mother's Day, my birthday and my son's birthday. Apparently my mother thought we were getting together to help her get through the five-year anniversary of her husband's passing. Nevermind that he was my father and my son's grandfather and the only real male role model my son had. Nevermind that my son is in the military and may not be home for his next birthday. Nevermind that my son is now 20 and may end up living somewhere far away. Nevermind that it was my 50th. She needed a distraction and we were it.
