April 29, 2006💔💔 20 yrs since the day I got the call I no longer had you here with me, 20 yrs since life as I knew it would change forever, 20 yrs since you went from suffering to being seated at the Throne. I didn’t know how I’d survive 20 days without your calming voice let alone 20 years. You poured so much into us in the short time we had you to help us slowly pick the pieces up and somehow navigate this world without you.. Til this day I tell friends and family that are estranged from their mothers to make it right while you have time and she's still here. I don't have you and all I want is to hear you say "Maine gone take care of it" knowing that's all you needed to say to me to get me going and do anything I set my mind to. There are times I wonder and ask myself what if? What if cancer didn't come back after you beat it so many times? What if God gave you more time? What if you could see me in latter 20's, my 30's and now my 40's? What if you were here to see how the love you have your children transcended how we praise God for who He is, how we do business, lead our lives, & treat people because of how you taught us to? Would you be sitting on your favorite couch with that big beautiful smile when I entered the door "Hey Trevelle" as only you would call me by my middle name. There are so many what ifs that I wish were realities that I battle with to this day but I know that there's no chemo ports, no more test, no more pain, no more weak days. Knowing your fate and still proclaiming in your last days "But God", "To God Be The Glory" I know where your soul resides my love but the selfish, stubborn, hard headed son you gave so much to wishes for a moment he could just sit next to right now like old the days if only for a moment.. To have a Mother is to know what love is! I miss you so much Shirley Ann King Perry!! Continue to guide me on this journey Mrs. SKP🕊️💔💞🎀👼🏾
