Day 45

I decided to do some shopping today after religious school. It wasn’t a great morning and I’ve been needing to pick up a few things, so I headed to TJ Maxx. My mom loved going there and I hadn’t been in a long time.

It was strange going in by myself. The layout was how I remembered it and as I walked around, I remembered various moments in time when Mom and I had been there together. It didn’t make me cry, but I kept thinking about how much I miss her.

I know more of these “firsts” are coming and I’m just trying to brace myself.
