Precious gems!

The anniversary of moms passing has come and gone. I always think I am not bothered by it but then the day comes and my emotions are close to the surface. It doesn't seem like eight years and I miss her so much everyday. I can't wait to be together again.

Mom and Dad

I don't know what year this was but they are always so cute.

New pictures!

I finally got new pictures scanned. I think this is at mom's bridal shower. I love her jumpsuit!

Happy Birthday Mom!

Mom would have been 62 today. Oh how I miss her. She is sooooooo beautiful!

I miss her! What else is there to say.

Happy Mothers Day!

I don't think about Mothers Day very hard. I focus on me being a mom myself. However yesterday I found the feelings bubbling up as I looked at photos and thought about my gorgeous mom. The most intense feeling I have is a feeling of desperation to see her, I feeling of wanting to lay down and throw a huge fit that I cannot accomplish this. Finally patience and acceptance come back and I try to look forward to the day, the day that we will be together again. It will come!

Grandma update

Grandma is doing so good. She is back home and walking and talking. She is forgetting things a little more than she used to, so that is frustrating to her but she is grateful to be back home. I am so proud of her and all her hard work to come back to us!
