My Sweet Mom,
How can I Thank You & let you know what you mean to me. Almost 53yrs ago, we met and I knew you were my mom. You taught me all I know - life skills & lessons. To be strong and resolute, an unwavering love of what a mother and daughter really mean to each other. The teachings of God and what true family & friends are. To stand for the truth, even when others wouldn't believe. Although we butted heads at times, as all moms and kids do, we never left each other's side. The Best I know of you is your smile, gentleness and laughter! We had so much fun! Memories of you come back in waves I can't stop and don't want to. Covering your eyes with every jump, buck and fence crash, bunnies for Easter, hissing 'possums in the turnaround trees at night, field mice in the fireplace, " wildfires " and snake chunks in the grass. But most of all, nights of winter storms with a warm fireplace, music playing and talking for hours. Though other great memories were made as we grew older, those of you & I alone growing up are the most precious. You are with our Savior now, walking streets of gold, young - healthy, in peace and safety. I know you will by my side until we are together again with all of our family and kitties. You've been letting me know by the soft mockingbird whistle that you are already here . Until then, I Love You More Than You Will Ever Know.
