I'll always have the memories

Hey fashionista's
F.Y.I This will be a picture heavy post!!!



Today is a very memorial date for me. This date 2 years ago today I lost my mother. She was my best friend, my up-lifter, my cheerleader,my help in decision making. It seems like when I lost her she seemed to fill in all the holes within my life,making her leaving this earth so abruptly heart shattering.

To everyone else it was any old day,but its one I will never forget. I did not cry this year and for a lil bit I was mad at myself for not crying. I know I have not forgotten my mother and I never will. I did sit in the living room and refelct looking at our mini shirne of pictures to my mother with her picture frame urn in the middle. In the recent year I have taken myself back and gained so my strength in knowing she is at peace. I know I have made her so proud, keep my promise to get my masters and pulling myself out of the slump after she passed (it was so tough),and trying to some what feel her shoes for my family (there is 4 of us total).

My momma passed at the age of 38 and she overcame so many odds. She was a teen mom, who got married,graduated college,raised a family and was a at home mom,finally started her own career working with children,she was active in the church,helping start children and youth ministry,supportive wife,and before she passed she was enrolled in a master's program. She was my super mom and I love her

I will always miss her presence and sometimes it seems she's on some long vacation and we are waiting for her to get back. She was my tv show buddy,my phone buddy,shopping buddy, Chinese lunch buddy, my prayer buddy, my mother. I may not have her physically here but I will always have the memories. I will always be momma's lil angel.

I'm sharing some photos and memories of my mother and my family. Hope you all don't mind the personal post.

Peace and blessings to you at this time of reflection. Whether you cry, smile or laugh, during these times your mom certainly understands and that's what really matters. You know you haven't fogotten your mom so please don't feel bad when you don't cry. You are operating on the mega strength you are continuing to build up over the years. You keep doing her proud and may she continue to rest in peace.

I lost My Dad less than 2 years ago, so I understand the loss of a parent.I think a Mom may be on a differnt level though! Sorry for your loss and remember that every1 copes different. Doesn't mean that you miss her any less.
