Mom another year has passed and I can´t say it gets easier. You were always here when I needed someone to talk to and I always listened when you needed me. I remember all the great times we had singing to Meatloaf and Barry Manilow. Driving around looking at the Christmas Lights going to parks to see the wildlife and beautiful trees. I love you so much and miss you dearly. Kiss Daddy for me.
