I heard this yesterday, and it brought my mother to mind, I remember her singing along to the radio. She had a beautiful voice.

My mother always loved this song and sang along with it when it came on the radio. I truly had the best mom ever.

My wife has sung it to my granddaughter since an infant, it is now “their song” and my granddaughter knows it by heart. I have a feeling it is probably the top song sung by so many mothers over the decades... a very simple but Iconic song. |

My Grandfather loved Jimmy Davis, especially when he rode his horse in the Capitol. My Mother was mother to 15 brothers ,her mother was always sick, she started cooking at 10 yrs old atop a milk crate on a wood stove while the boys did the cane farming, later she cut cane in the fields with a cane knife. No education she could count in her head like a calculator, Her favorite song, Fats Damino Ain’t That A Shame, She was the one who taught me how to shoot, she would light up a match stuck up a fence post at 25 to 30 feet. Miss her every day.

My mom is still with us, and still pretty spry at 72 years old. She was the youngest of 12 kids born to a poor tobacco farmer back up in the hills of central Kentucky.
She's living in Kentucky, about a mile down the road from the spot where she was born. She still has my Dad around to pester, fuzzle with and take care of. That's what she lives for. They just celebrated 54 years together.
My youngest sister and her 4 daughters are there, and my grown, twin daughters live just down the road, so Im sure she has a house full of family to fuss over today.

That is pretty cool that both of your folks are still around Dewayne. I lost my mom at 17, my dad in my thirties.

I had two "Second Moms". The one that is still living I called this morning to wish her a happy Mother's day and to tell her thanks. She's 94 and she was also my Den Mother. The other one died a couple of years ago and I messaged her son to tell him that I was thinking of her and how great she was. My mom's been gone since '98, and I hardly ever think I need to tell her something or take her somewhere anymore.

My old mother died decades ago. I sure miss her.
She did her best for me. I was not her first family.
She lost her husband in WW2. His plane did not return to the Carrier. She never recovered from that loss as long as I can remember. I guess she married my father after the war because she did not know what else to do. She also lost her brother and her father during the war. I was sort of a consolation or booby prize. She did a lot of crying while I grew up. Home life was grim. But, we got along. I hope she is finally at peace.

I hope she is finally at peace. I am sorry to hear that. My home always had a portion of sadness after my dad died when I was 9, but my mom and I were pretty happy together. Two of us against the world. We had a lot of good times and stayed busy with the Scout activities. When I look back on it, I realize that it wasn't the ideal childhood, but it was all I knew and I feel bad for people who had rough childhoods. A few of my friends had dad's that were cruel, beat their kids and wives, or were drunks. Most of them overcame it. My wife's parents were real pieces of work, but they did the best they could. We just watched I Remember Mama, and thought about how our parents had to live, pinching pennies and walking the straight path because there might not be a second chance. |
