Sisters

My mom died on December 28, 2002. I miss my mom, especially on Mother's Day. We used to talk on the phone every week and, of course, on Mother's Day.

I have two sisters. Mom used to dress us alike. Here we are dressed for a costume party on the ship, returning to the States on furlough.

Sometimes we just dressed up.
As sisters, we have similarities:

• We love all things Asian, especially food.
• We like to organize (from Dad) and make lists (from Mom).
• We like nature and hiking.
• We are mothers of two children.

Here we are, three mothers, at the Bruinooge reunion in 2006.

We no longer dress alike, but we still like to talk to each other on the phone. Think I'll call my sisters and wish them a Happy Mother's Day.
