Mom always sat in the front passenger seat

Mom always sat in the front passenger seat and all us kids sorted out our seats in the back with some crying and fighting over who gets the window. As years went by and all us kids moved on nothing changed mom was always in the front passenger seat naturally because there was only two of them and mom never drove. When dad passed away things changed mom no longer sat in the wive’s allotted seat. She was a passenger and sat in the backseat of one of our vehicles . Years went by and one time out of the blue mom said to my wife hey that’s my seat. It quickly dawned on me what was happening and we smiled and put mom in the front seat . So ever after mom sat in the front seat and either my wife or I drove. It remained her seat until she was the longer with us. Odd how all of a sudden she wanted her seat back after all that time. Like it was just yesterday when she sat in the front passenger seat and chatted with her husband.
