生日的承诺（4）（2/2）

looking at all the pictures you’d taken when the two of you had traveled together. I’d forgotten how many countries you’d visited over the years. I do remember, like it was yesterday, the call got saying that you had to cut short your Hawaiian vision because you’d been hand by a surfboard on the beach at Waikiki and received twenty stitches in your leg. Your granddaughter stayed up all night and tended to your needs. In the morning, she made all the flight arrangements to get you home. She was only thirteen years old. You were so proud of her.
I know that feeling today, Mom, when I see what wonderful mothers my daughters have become.
As for your great-grandchildren, all I can say is that they have an overabundance of energy; either that, or I’m getting old. A photo of the entire f***ly sits on my dresser. Everyone looks so happy. We still are. I thought you’d like to hear that. It’s difficult without you, but I think we’re finally getting our act together.
It’s getting late, so I’m going to put away your things for now. We’ll do this again next year, promise.
Happy birthday, Mom.
