Today marks 4 years since my sweet mom passed away.
You would think that over time this day would get easier, life without her would somehow start to seem normal - but it doesn't.
I can count on something daily that reminds me of something about my mom and it brings a rush of memories. Don't get me wrong - I love it. It gives me a chance to talk about her, help my husband get to know my amazing mom since he never had the pleasure of meeting her - those memories truly bring a smile to my face!
But days like today - I can't help but feel a little down. I feel like I am missing out on a lot! I envy all those girls whose mom is their best friend and they do everything together.
It just sucks!
I am just grateful that she helped mold my wonderful family before moving on to bigger things. I love my large family - we each help one another out in our own special way. I am grateful for the example she set - never once complaining through 4 months of literal hell. She's Wonder Woman - and I can honestly say nobody comes close to being as amazing as my sweet mom. I freakin love her!
Oh Chylie! This just breaks my heart! I never met your mom, but I can tell just by how you talk about her that she is wonderful, and she is definitely doing better things now. I can only imagine how you are feeling right now. love ya!
ReplyDeleteYour mom really was an amazing woman. I have very fond memories of spending time at your house and your mom being like a second mom to me! I'm sorry about the rough day :(
ReplyDeleteOh Chy... I remember that day like it was yesterday!! Hang in there babes!! I love you and am thinking of you!!
ReplyDeleteYour mom had this gift of making me feel important. It was something really special because it came during a time in my life when I needed it most. I love your mom too and miss her. I'm grateful she is a part of my life.
