MOM

MOM

How blessed I am to have been born to such a wonderful Mother. Everything I am I owe to you. Your strength and wisdom guides me, your love for life inspires me, your kindness and grace warms me. I have never met another person like you, and know in my heart that I never will - you are one of a kind. I can only wish to have the light that you gave, for you touched all those around you with your warmth. I am proud to be your daughter and could not have asked for more in a Mother.

So much time went by and I never said thank you or I love you, Mom enough. Today, I do yet it’s just a little late. God took you from those who love you most. He took you to his kingdom where you are with your parents, daddy, Vickie, Aunt Mickey, Uncle Jimmy, and the many others that have gone on before you. I know you're happy and free of the pain you suffered. Although my heart aches for you to be here with me daily, I find peace in knowing you can be wherever you are needed now. Watch over us always and forever you will stay in our hearts. It's hard to believe that you have been gone from us for three years already, although it seems like yesterday that you were Promoted to Glory! You are so very loved and deeply missed by us all. But we know in our hearts you live!

You gave me the best present ever, Mom...the gift of life, and I will never forget all of the unconditional LOVE you have given me. All the good times you and I shared. The times that you were my shield, my comfort and my friend, will always be remembered. You already know that I LOVE YOU with all of my heart and I will never forget you, because the day you left me, you took a big piece of my heart with you. Until we see each other again in heaven, I will keep the memories, all the kisses, and all of the warm hugs in my heart. I will love you……….ALWAYS AND FOREVER.
