I hate mothers day

The last post made me think about things, and I just have to comment about this.

My mother died just a few years ago, recent enough that when I think of her I feel the pang of loss more than the happy memories.

The wife and I have no kids. We want them. We are getting to the edge of age where having a kid is possible. The fear is we will never have any.

So with my mom gone, and the possibility that the wife won't be.... I really hate this holiday.

I feel pretty much the same way about fathers day. I hated my father, and I have no kids.

Ba Humbug (as it were)
