Sweet Pea has her freckles, light skin, and her spunky additude. Bear has her smile, laugh, and general expressions. Bubba has her nose, eyes and sweet disposition. I am so thankful for God's miracles, these constant reminders of my mom. It's hard to believe it's been seven years (yesterday). While I know there's no place on earth she would rather be than with her grandbabies, I know where she is, is far better than anything I could imagine here.
I miss her SO much. When she first passed, I was a little relieved for her. She was no longer suffering and she was "home" with our King and both of her parents. But once I had kids, I became selfish and wished they could meet her and experience her love, which is like no other. Everyday they do something that makes me want to call her, then I realize, she already knows :). I find myself doing things with and for them, just as she did with and for me. That makes me smile - her legacy lives on.
Mom - I love you more than ever and I am so thankful for your life, your love and your spirit. You were the most amazing woman I've ever known. Your grandbabies will know your love and everything about you - I will pass that on.
Until We Meet Again...
