Today is May 10, 2009. My daddy, William Campbell died 1o years ago today.  It also happens to be Mother's Day.  Mother really never understood what today was.  She got up early, and I got her dressed to go to church.  Vickie took her and met William Paul there.  Brother Bill gave mother a ceramic angel with a rose on it for Mother's Day.  WP gave her a rose and she really liked it.  We ate steaks and trimmings that I grilled while they were at church.  She talked with Aunt Macky, Aunt Kay and Michelle.  Hunter and Rebecca and David, Julie and Marlee visited with her.  She was kind of confused all day, really.  We usually do a big family thing on Mother's Day but this year, I just wasn't up to it.  I went on the hill early before I got mother ready for church.  The grass is getting tall because of all the rain and the backwater is going up just as quickly.  It rained even more today.  I hope we have a little letup this week.  We didn't mention anything about Daddy today because mother really doesn't understand.  I miss him so much.  When I am on the hill, I feel his presence.  Maybe that's why I like to be on the hill so much.  Anyway, it's been an emotional day to say the least.  Tommy's in Chicago and will be home in the morning.  I talked with Marie and told her Happy Mother's Day and Jenny, Troy and AC came down and brought me a card, which I really appreciated.  I am going to be bed now and rest for a busy week at school.
