Not sure what to say?

Hi Mom,
Its been awhile since I wrote to you on here, but not a single day goes by that I don't think about you. A lot has changed in this world. I do not even know what to say about it, except that you would be sad. We are at war, not just boots on the ground but all around us. Good verses Evil. I pray every day for people to find God, peace, and love so that we can all live together in harmony.
Some family news catch up: You are a Grandmother to 12, and a Great Grandmother to 4...

Hey Mom,
Whats up? Same here except I still miss you. I find myself talking to you often wishing you were still here. They say it gets easier but I think it depends on the time. There are some things that just kill me that you're not here for. Sue married Skip yesterday, it was very nice, I am so happy for them that they found each other. Natalie is getting married too and you know that just had me thinking about our own kids. Jamie went to Prom and did she look perfect. It is finally...

Happy Birthday MOM!!!! I was in Kansas for a wedding and guess what I saw? A Thomas Kincaide store, boy oh boy did I think of you. I know I could have gotten you the best present from there. I miss you more than words can say, I thought time was supposed to heal, it seems to me that it is getting harder and sadder not easier. I was at the wedding and alls I could think about was you're not going to be there for Skye's and Lauren's. It's so overwhelming. I am trying to focus on the good times...

Hey you, I can hardly believe that a year has passed since you left us. I MISS YOU SOOOOOOO much. We spent the day by Stevens going thru your stuff, and I was thinking I'd give anything to just have another day with you, even an hour. I still pick up the phone to call you, and I get broken hearted all over again. I know you are in a much better place and I'm just being selfish, and I am so thankful for all my sisters and Steven. THANK YOU!!!! And thanks for sending Steven Gina, I know you had...

In tears we saw you sinking
And watched you pass away.
Our hearts were almost broken
We wanted you to stay.
But when we saw you sleeping
So peaceful, free from pain,
How could we wish you back with us
To suffer that again.
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you did not go alone
For part of us went with you
The day God took you home.
If roses grow in heaven
Lord, please pick a bunch for me
Place them in my mother’s...

Hey mom, today Jess graduated High school. I can hardly beleive it. Where does the time go? I tried calling you again the other day, I thought this was supposed to get easier. I really could use to talk to you. I do feel like I have grown closer to my sisters and Steven, but no one can fill your shoes, I miss being able to talk to you about everything!!!! I love ya and MISS ya

Hey Mom it's Mother's Day this weekend and I sure wish you were still with us. I'm going to the Cubs game to get your Precious Moments figurine, and you'll be with me in spirit. Thanks for being the GREATEST Mom Ever, I miss our talks, but I know you can still hear me whining down here, I just hope I can be half as good a mom as you were. I realize more every day of the difficulties of being parents. And boy oh boy the respect I have for you....
Anyway I just wanted to wish you a happy...

Hey Mom,
I just wanted to say hey and touch base. I still think of you every day, and what Ter said I have to say I second it in everyway!!! You touched MANY lives and will for a long long time. I miss you bad, and wish I just had one more day with you. I keep picking up the phone to call and then I remember all over again. No one can ever take your place. I love you and miss you.

Mom,
Been thinking of you a lot today, I know you will never read this, but others will,and know how much you loved, and were loved in return. I know you never felt that you had "done anything" with your life..I am here to tell you that you most certainly did! Just think..without you, I wouldn't be here..and that goes for all 6 of us..look at the circle of Love and Family you created..Because of you alone 17 people exist, and have the opportunity to perhaps do GREAT things! All of our...
