Dear Mom,
I'm missing you more as each day passes. They tell me time will heal... all I feel is a multitude of memories that makes my heart ache even more. You used to call me just so you could cry because I let you cry. Afterwords you would say thank you Donna, I needed that . Mom, I'm crying, I need you to be my shoulder now. You have taught me so much in life but you neglected to teach me how to live without you. I will continue loving you and honoring you everyday of my life. I'm so thankful and proud to call you my Mother. My kids love and adore you and people we have come to know in our lives respect you. Embrace the freedom of your pain, sing with the angels and laugh with all the animals that have passed. I will see you again Mom, in my dreams and when I leave this world. Whenever you can.... please whisper to me to let me know you are near... I love you Mom! Thank you for all that you have sacrificed for me!!
