Tonight was one of those nights.  One of those nights where I wanted to call my mom.

I submitted a post to the Huffington post...this one.  Tonight, Sunday (which explains why she is a gazillionaire when she works on a Sunday night), I got an email from Arianna HERSELF.

It's a big deal, the first piece to be published by a huge publication.  I wanted to tell my mom.  I did share the news, with the most important people in my life.

But I wanted my mom.

So I'm sitting here, when I should be rejoicing, with tears streaming down my face, and I wonder.  Do we ever really heal from the loss of a parent?
