A Visit From Mom By: Carlis B. Wilson Living with Grandpa Wilson My father died when I was just a small child. After father's death, mother married again, and she and her second husband moved to Indiana to find work in the city of Indianapolis. They let me stay with poppy Wilson and his youngest daughter, where there was room for running and playing. I remember many things about those days. Getting stuck in the plowed ground. Another time. If I could only see mom. While looking up into the sky watching the clouds go by, some time had passed as I was fascinated with the beauty of the scene. As the cars were passing on the dusty gravel road in front of the house, my thoughts once again were "if I could only see mom." Then something wonderful happened, a word came to me, "mom would be in the third car coming that way." I began to count the cars as they passed by. First car, some time passed, Second car, more time passed, then after a long wait the Third car pulled into the driveway. A beautiful lady with brown eyes and shining black hair wearing a pretty red dress got out of the car and said, "Carlis how are you?" I was very happy to see my mother. Many years have passed and gone, mom has passed on to her heavenly reward, but I have never forgotten the day the third car brought mom to see me. _Carlis B.
