My mom is an awesome mom but she is human. That is one of the best things about my mom. She doesn't try to pretend she is perfect but she does try to improve. One day, I don't know what triggered the thought process, I thought about how many times my mom said "I Love You." I realized she didn't say it a lot. We always knew but I asked her, "Mom, why don't you ever say I love you randomly out of the blue." Randomly out of the blue meaning just because. However my mom has the sense of humor of saying, "I love you randomly out of the blue" instead of just saying "I love you" randomly out of the blue. It stuck and has become a special family saying.
For instance my sister and I were coming home from girls camp when we got service and a text message. It read simply 8 precious words: "I love you out of the blue randomly." (She got the original order of the words mixed up.) The message was sent on Friday. My sister told me she had been having a tough day that Friday. I had the same luck that Friday. Reading those words from our mom meant a lot.
I am hoping this blog is able to help someone when they are having a bad day like that text message did to me. Despite the crazy world we live in, there is hope and love.
