I’ve thought about this beautiful lady all day. Thirty three years since she passed through the veil. Thirty three years since I woke up on that Saturday morning and didn’t hear her breathing.
I’m now four years older than you were when it was your time to go. I can’t imagine the things you thought and the fears you must’ve had at leaving us. You were so strong, Mama. I’m so proud of the lady you are. You taught me well in the short time we had together and I am so grateful for your example.
I look at my boys and Pumpkin and I know you would’ve loved on them like they needed and deserved to be loved on.
It’s a shame for us, but I know that we will see you again.
My annual advice to all who have their parents on this side of the veil, call them. Record their voice and them if you can. Love them while they’re here because there will come a day when you will ache to hear their voice one more time and the silence that meets you is deafening.
