My mom came to visit in March for a couple of weeks. She helped out a lot around here and then she had to leave and go home miles away.
I really liked having my mom here. She helped with the kids but then when she left I missed it.

I can imagine! That extra set of hands -- and a person you can *trust* -- that's the best!

Yes, the kids really missed her when she left. It took us a while to get back to the normal around here.

Does she live far away? It sounds like maybe visits aren't too frequent.
