Mom ~~

Wanted to wish you a Happy New Year and let you know I won't be writing you here anymore. It will expire soon and I talk to you every day anyway.

I know you see what is going on and how much I have been hurt, but I will survive. You and Dad know the outcome and hopefully soon I will too.

I wish you were here to talk to me in person and help me through this, but I have to just accept the fact I can't

You and Dad must have felt so proud when Sunny Isles...

Mom

I know you think I forgot your birthday but actually I have thought about it for days. I was in Lexington on your birthday at a wedding for one of Jess's friends. I have decided not to write in this book anymore. I would rather just talk to you and dad in my prayers. I love you both and hope you understand.

Happy Birthday, Mom. I miss going to try to find just the right gown, with pockets, of course. After all these months, I still can't believe I am writing to you here instead of picking up the phone and singing happy birthday. I miss that little chuckle after I finished singing.

I love you Mom, and miss you more than anyone could imagine. Maybe Dad was able to find just the right gown for you this time.

Be Happy and have a wonderful Birthday. I love you

Happy Anniversary Mom. When I read the card that Dad sent you last year with the roses he gave you and saw 58 years, I thought wow. Now one year later, you and Dad will once again be able to celebrate together. My heart still aches, but at the same time knowing you two will be celebrating #59 together gives me some comfort. Celebrate your love for each other today and forever.

Love

Mom:
It was always so difficult finding just the right anniversary present for you and dad but it was something I always enjoyed looking for. Your love for each other always gave me hope that maybe one day I could be half as happy as you and dad were. That day will never come for me but I am glad you and dad enjoyed all of your years together here and will be enjoying the rest of your lives together in blissful peace. I love you

Mom, I tried calling but the lines were busy as usual. This is the lonliest Mother's Day ever. I believe this is the first year I ever really knew the meaning of the word mother. It is everything you tried to teach me as I was growing up. I love you

Happy Mother's Day Mom !!! I have an empty place in my heart today. Here is the card I would have mailed to you.

You're the Best Mom a Daughter Could Have
I love you, Mom, for being not only a gentle mother, but also a friend I could share with and talk to and trust.

I love you for being yourself with me and letting me know you the way you are ....

I love you for standing up to me when I needed it and for standing by me always.

I love you for telling me the...

Mom:

My birthday was quite different this year. I know you were unable to call me but i missed your call so much. I hope you and dad enjoyed Dad's birthday today. Wish I could be there. Love you

Mom:

As you know I have been feeling some of the pain that you had through out your life. Although I always felt some of your pain it was no where near how it actually feels. I have been sick since before Christmas and am hoping things will turn around soon. I know you already know but Angel is getting married February 16, 2008. Yep, finally. She is so happy and will get the life she deserves. I love you mom
