My dear sweet Brittania, August is here and probably the hottest month of the year. At times it was hotter in Maine then Florida if you can believe that ! But we cope with it, ! Anyway, miss you as always, never stop thinking of you. Love you forever, mom !

Dear Brittania, can't believe it's July already , June went by so fast . I'm hoping July hangs around a little longer. It's been very hot here in Florida but then again, Maine has been getting a lot of heat also. Sometimes I almost miss the winters, almost ! But I'll always have you in my heart and forever in my thoughts. love you so much

My dear daughter, dark sky and thunder on this first day of June! Hopefully my patio will get cleaned off. Leaves crumbled flowers bird and toad droppings, you know, the usual . And now we have lighting? Your 39th birthday is coming up soon. I can't imagine what you'd be doing or even look like. You'll always be my sweet 17 year little girl. Miss and love you so much. Love forever, mom.

Dear Brittania, May is here which is Mothers Day month! I'm still so happy and proud to be a mother to you and Cheyne even though neither of you are here, Cheyne being in Maine and you in Heaven ! But you both will always be in my heart . I do see Cheyne on FaceTime via the internet. It would be nice to have FaceTime in Heaven but I'll always have my memories and pictures of you. I love you so much your mom forever !

Dear Brittania, well another new year has started without you and this time without anyone ! Your brother is in Maine with his wife and son. They have been gone since September. They may come for a visit in a week or two. Anyway, the cat is good company and all the birds and squirrels that I feed. I'm that old person in the park , gotta laugh love you dearly
Nancy Borden
December 1, 2024
My dear Brittania , I couldn't sleep so thought I'd say hello at 1:am this Sunday morning and the 1st of December! My Thanksgiving was spent with the cat and memories. Cheyne is in Maine with his wife and son and the rest of the family! Christmas and my birthday will be with the cat and more memories but I really don't mind as long as I have tv, the internet and coffee . Well guess I'll try going back to bed ! I love you and miss you , your mom for ever
Nancy Borden
November 1, 2024
Dear Brittania, well it looks like it's just me and the cat . Cheyne has moved to Maine to be with his wife and son. I don't mind the holidays alone although Christmas will be an emotional day, but I really don't mind being alone anymore ! As long as I have tv and the internet, I'm a happy old lady . I'll type to you again next month and let you know how Thanksgiving turned out ! Love and miss you as always, your mom !
Nancy Borden
October 1, 2024
Dear Brittania, as always, thinking of you and what could have been. Halloween is coming up and still trying to remember taking you around the neighborhood, but those memories are fading and it makes me sad ! The side walk still has your name that you wrote while the cement was still wet. So, in a way, you'll always be here. Love you so much your mom !

September 1, 2024
Dear Brittania, seems like I just said hi to you as the time goes so fast . Cheyne is in Maine right now visiting his wife and son, he'll be back sometime tomorrow. With the exception for daily thunder storms, it's been very quiet here. Let's me reflect on the bygone things. I'm still feeding the squirrels and birds, that's my enjoyment in life, . Will always love you and keep you safe in my heart
Nancy Borden
August 1, 2024
My dear sweet Brittania, just thinking of you as always. The hottest month of the year is here but I don't mind. I stay inside with the air conditioner on and that's great for me ? I enjoy the squirrels and birds that come by every day for peanuts and seeds. Gosh, I've become the old neighbor lady I grew up with but she was happy and I guess iam somewhat too ! I love you very much . Mom

Nancy Borden
April 2, 2024
Dear Brittania, I'm a day late but yesterday came up so fast I didn't realize another month had passed. Thalen is starting to get to the terrible twos already and he's only 15 months old. If he's anything like your brother, his mother will have her hands full. You were pretty calm in your twos, . It's getting late so I'll just say " talk to you later " love you dearly
Nancy Borden
March 1, 2024
Dear Brittania, thinking of you like I always do and just wondering what you'd be doing today ! Just wishing but if wishes were horses, I'd have a whole herd ! But as they say, it is what it is ! I'll always live and miss you but you know that ! I can only see you with your dad and that helps to ease the loss I feel. Love

So happy that he's down here with me for that. He is so cute and smart ! Reminds me of you and your brother! December will always be emotional for me but memories will bring back good times! Love and miss you my little girl ! Forever your mom !

Brittany's Another month has gone by. Your nephew is growing up so fast. At least, they will all be with your Mom for the holidays, maybe she'll find some comfort for awhile. I know she'll never be the same without you and Tim but her memories will always be there.. Keep her safe and watch over her. Eleanor

Death Brittania, fall is just about here. What a rainy thunder and lightning wet summer we've had. A hurricane came by, but through the powers that be, we didn't get much of it.

Dear Brittania, I've been face chatting with your little nephew Thalen on Facebook. He is so cute, I wish you could have seen him. He reminds me of you and your brother when you two were that age. Your brother is a great father and am so proud of him. I'm still so proud of you, joining the navy and would have left me on this month. But as always, you'll be forever in my heart . Love you very much,your mom !
Nancy Borden
July 1, 2023
dear Brittania , your nephew is growing so fast. He's still in Maine but will be here in October. I get to see him on face chat . We've had a lot of thunderstorms here, I guess it's the season for them. Not doing much lately, just to hot to do much of anything. I love you and miss you so much, I get so teary-eyed thinking of you but that's what mom do ! you to heaven and back.

Nancy Borden
June 1, 2023
Dear Brittania, on the 24th , your birthday , you'd have been 37 years old. I really want to believe that you would be with your dad and grandparents, aunts and uncles maybe even the pets we loved. Your aunt Jene will now be with you too. I miss you so much dear. But you know by writing too you every month, you'll always be remembered by me until we are together. Love you so much.
Nancy Borden
May 1, 2023
Dear Brittania, may day is here again, but Florida doesn't really do anything like back when I was a kid in Maine. We would make may baskets filled with candy and give them to special friends. This was a celebration for the beginning of spring. There's so much I wish I could tell you about myself as a child. I miss you terribly but you will forever be in my heart.
Nancy Borden
April 1, 2023
You can enter my dreams without asking, but please, never ask if you can leave ! If you stay then I'll know I'm now with you . It may not be for awhile, but dreams do come true. Love and miss you so much . Your mom forever .
Nancy Borden
March 1, 2023
Dear Brittania, Can't believe winter is pretty much over. Cheyne, his wife and baby are still here ! And with 2 little dogs and a cat, which isn't too bad, it's all the stuff they brought with them. Wall to Wall stuff ! which you were here amongst us but I still have you in my heart . Love you forever.
Nancy Borden
February 1, 2023
My dear Brittania , your brother and his wife are still in Maine. They were coming to Florida yesterday but have car troubles so now they're looking at a few more days up there, depending on what's wrong with it. I'm anxiously waiting to see their baby, your cousin, my grandchild! I've seen him through Instagram. He is a big boy. Maine is very cold right now, so glad I'm in Florida. I miss you as always and you know how much I love you. .
Nancy Borden
January 1, 2023

Nancy Borden
December 14, 2022

Nancy Borden
December 1, 2022
Dear Brittania, December is finally here . I'm still alone because Cheyne is still in Maine with Jade waiting for the birth of their first born. I'll probably pull the tree out and put it in the window. No feelings there but it's something to do I guess. I miss you as always and love you forever. Mom
Nancy Borden
November 1, 2022
My dear daughter November is here already. Thanksgiving will soon be here but it won't be a family get together for me ! Your brother will be in Maine with his wife waiting for the birth of their son, Thaylen. They will come back here after New Years ! So I'll be spending the holidays with you . I really don't mind , I kinda like the idea of just you and I . Love you forever, mom !
Nancy Borden
October 1, 2022
Dear Brittania, halloween month is now here. Kids just don't do much trick or treating anymore but so glad they did when you and Cheyne were little. Even then, it wasn't as fun as when I was little? I miss you every day, and love you always and forever !
Nancy Borden
September 1, 2022
Dear Brittania, fall is upon us, yeah ! Your nephew should be born sometime in December. I can't wait. As he gets older I will tell him of his beautiful aunt. You'll never be left out of our lives. Miss you so much. Love you much, mom.
Nancy Borden
August 1, 2022
Dear Brittania, it's so hot here now and pretty hot in Maine too. Cheyne will be going there at the end of the week to have a gender review party for his and Jade's baby. They already told me, it's a boy. I'm not going because it's just to long of a ride and I'd rather stay here. I still have you and will never let you go ! I love and miss you so much.
Nancy Borden
July 1, 2022
Dear Brittania, July is here already and as I've always said, once the 4th of July is over the rest of the year goes so fast that the Christmas tree is up before you know it. I guess the neighborhood will be having their fireworks going off most of the night which is ok, I kinda like them. Miss having you here to watch them but your memory will always be here . I love and miss you so much dear.
Nancy Borden

My dear Brittania your birth month is here again and again my thoughts are with you. Your brother is going to be a father this coming December, the month you and your dad left and the month I was born. But know that my love for you will always be there and will never fade. Love from Mom
Nancy Borden
May 1, 2022
Dear Brittania, around December, your going to be an aunt. Your brother will be a father and I'll be a grandmother. I could never picture Cheyne being a dad . I wish you were here to be a part of all this but I know you are with your dad who will be a grandfather. Love you , your mom.
Nancy Borden
April 1, 2022
Dear Brittania, April 1st is here . Spring should show up In Maine soon ,while here in Florida , it never left. A few weeks ago, I met my great great niece. She is 1& 1/2 years old. Red hair and cute as a button. She reminded me of you at that age. I sure do miss you dear. I love you always. mom.
Nancy Borden
March 1, 2022
Dear Brittania, spring is right around the corner. For Florida it's just another the same but for Maine, it's a very long corner. Tree trimmers are here right now, making a lot of noise , I can't even here myself think, lol but it'll never keep me from thinking about you. You have never left my mind or heart . I love you dearly. Mom.
Nancy Borden
February 1, 2022
My dear daughter February has just started a little warmer then the end of January. It's been in the 30s here in Florida but in Maine, it has been 20 below so I certainly can't complain. I keep wondering where you'd be and would you be happy. I only know that I miss you so much and will love you forever.
Nancy Borden
January 7, 2022
So sorry I'm late but going from one year to the next is a hassle . But you know I'll never forget the love that only a mother can have for her daughter. You and your brother's picture is on my Facebook page. I finally figured out how to add it, lol . Love you so much, your mom .

Nancy Borden
October 1, 2021
Dear Brittania, October is starting with a bang ! Thunder, lighting, and of course , rain. I don't mind but here in Florida, after a rain, all the plants and bushes have grown at least 10 inches. So I have to trim trim trim. But I really don't mind, I just wish the weeds didn't grow just as fast. Your brother's first year anniversary will be coming up in a few weeks , he'll be going to Maine, so I'll be left alone. But that's ok , I don't mind at all. Will be thinking of you and missing you as always. Love you so much. Mom
Nancy Borden
September 1, 2021
My dear daughter, September is already here , I'm kinda glad but of course , here in Florida it doesn't mean it will be cooler. But that's ok, I don't mind staying inside with the air conditioner running. So, not only am I feeding all the birds, squirrels, and stray cat, I'm also feeding a bunch of toads . You know the huge ones, they've been eating the stray cats food so of course now I toss them a hand full plus I made a pool for them to sit in. I'm such a softy. Miss you and love you so much.
Nancy Borden
August 1, 2021
Dear Brittania, August already, I was just getting use to July. Very hot here as well as the rest of the country. I don't leave the house much, just can't take the heat. Watching the Olympics where Americans are doing really well, especially in the swimming . I know that would make you smile. Anyway, just dropped in to say hi, and as always let you know how much I miss and love you. Talk to you next month dear. Love mom .
Nancy Borden
July 1, 2021
Dear Brittania, I've been talking to you for 18 years now, always hoping some how you see my messages. If you can, then I know you can feel how much you are loved and missed. Writing to you every month brings me comfort in knowing that you may be reading them. Love you sweetie Mom.

Dear Brittania, happy birthday month. Saying it now in case I forget on the 24th. I keep forgetting a lot of stuff lately but will never forget you. I can't imagine you as being 35, 17 is the only way I'll ever remember you. You'll always be my little girl.
Nancy Borden
May 1, 2021
Dear Brittania, its the first of May already. April was a fast one but I'm hoping this month will drag a bit, I'm just not ready for summer. Not much going on , having the roof worked on but that's it. I miss you and love you so much. Not a day goes by without thinking of you. Your loving ❤ mom.
Nancy Borden
April 1, 2021
Dear Brittania, on this 1st of April, I was remembering the day you and your friend was on your bed throwing marbles into the ceiling fan and ducking under the covers. I was so mad but did have to laugh because it was such a thing little kids would do. A few days later, I discovered a marble size hole in the window. But anyway ,sometimes little things like that will enter my thoughts and I will always love the memories of you, the good ones and the not so good ones. I love you no matter what. Love will never go away, it's what makes me smile. Miss you always, mom !
Nancy Borden
March 1, 2021
My dear Brittania. Well, almost spring not that it matters in Florida. I sorta adopted an abandoned Siamese cat. She's been running wild since I left for Maine. I started feeding her along with other neighbors. She is so friendly and beautiful. She spends alot of time on the patio and always singing. Squirrels and birds aren't too happy but they'll adjust. Love you so much , and miss you , but I'll always keep you close by.
Nancy Borden
February 1, 2021
Dear Brittania, I so miss hearing your name seeing your face , just having you around. Winter here in Florida has been , as usual, really nice. I spend to much time on this tablet and watching TV. But the TV keeps me sane and the tablet let's me talk to you. I've semi adopted a beautiful Siamese cat that has been abandoned by neighbors. She is very friendly . But not sure if she would get along with my fully adopted cat. Anyway, I miss you and that feeling of loss will never go away. Love you so much. Mom
Nancy Borden
January 1, 2021
Dear Brittania, another year has come and gone. 2020 wasn't the best for anyone but there's hope for 2021. But all these years without you will always leave an empty place in my heart ❤ . Just the memories of you will at least make me smile a little. Love you and miss you always and forever. Mom

December 1, 2020
My dearest ♥ daughter. Today marks the beginning of the end but the memories will live forever. It's 54 degrees right now in Florida which is 2 degrees lower then in Maine, which is cold for floridians but warm for Maine'ahs. You know that I'll always have you in My heart ❤ . Miss you so much, love, your mom .

Dear Brittania, Halloween is over but never really knew it was here. Nobody really celebrates it anymore. I remember taking you and your brother around to some houses, it was a fun time. Anyway, just enjoy the memories, I love you very much, and as always, miss you so much.. Mom
Nancy Borden
October 1, 2020
Dear daughter, here it is , the Halloween month already. Your brother will be getting married on the 17th in Maine. It just doesn't seem real but I'm staying here because I don't travel well, lol. I wish I could picture you in a wedding dress but I only see a sweet 17 year old high school girl. Miss you so much and will love you forever. Your mom.
Nancy Borden
September 1, 2020
Dear Brittania, summer is over and fall is close by. It's the best time of the year in Maine but here in Florida it will be like summer still. I wish I could think of you as a woman but you'll always be my sweet high school daughter. I miss you so much. Love you dear. Mom

Dear Brittania, I thought I talked with you earlier but I'm here now. Stayed home on the 4th but neighbors were letting off fireworks which were really beautiful. And loud, sounded like a war zone. Been very hot here the last few days so not going outside at all. Just thinking of you and missing you so much, love you loads. Your mom.

Dear Brittania, april fools day is here but not many people are having fun with it. We have a virus that going around the whole planet, everyone is scared and a lot of places are closed up for safety. Me and Cheyne are staying close to home even though he still has to go to work. That's about all that's going on here for now. I miss and love you so much.

My dear daughter, winter has gone by so fast well, at least after this month is over but being in Florida we really don't have one. Of course Maine will have winter until April or the beginning of May. Always thinking of you, and never stop loving or missing you.
Nancy Borden
January 1, 2020
Dear Brittania, 2020 is finally here, it's just another year without you. I've gotten used to not having you here but it doesn't mean I've moved on. I'm still living in 2003 but don't cry so much. The broken heart will always be there, I've gotten use to that also. But the love that a mother has for her daughter will remain the same forever. I miss you and love you for eternity

Dear Brittania, so sorry to be late. No excuses just that time is getting away from me.

Miss you so much. Mom.

It's fall here in Maine. Your Mom is in Florida. Nicer weather. Think of you often and wonder if you'd be here in Maine with your Mom.

Dear Brittania, fall is just about here, but of course., being in Florida, I don't need to worry about sweaters just yet. Not much going on, watch alot of Netflix and u-tube to keep my mind on an even keal. Wish you were here to talk to but this guests book is helping me get by. I can't say I love you enough, because I always will. Love, mom.

Dear Brittania, can't believe summer is just about gone. It seems like it just started. But so does life I guess. We have a hurricane dropping by. Couldn't get water and the line at gas stations were long. Thank goodness, we have both and the hurricane seems to be bearing off from us a bit. Tuesday is the day we'll start feeling it, but we've been through a lot of them before so not worried. I love you sweetie and as always miss you terribly. Love you much, mom.

Dear Brittania, August is here already. The summer is just passing by so fast. As always, I think of you often, my heart will never mend but just knowing I had you for 17 years makes the heart keep beating. I'll always wish you were here but in a way, you will always be in my broken heart. Love you dearly. Mom.

Dear Brittania, the first of July came so fast. It's been wicked hot here so I stay in the house where it's a lot cooler. Cheyne just got back from Maine, wish I could have gone but just couldn't make that long drive again. Happy belated birthday, I can't believe you would have been 33. I love you so much and will always have you in my heart and mind. All my love, mom.

Dear Brittania, first day of June, still remember how much I wanted you to be born. You were such a delightful little bundle of pink joy. It's a month where feelings and love were over abundant. The opposite of December. I miss you with all my heart. Love you forever, your mom.

Dear sweet Brittania. Getting closer to spring which is a good thing if I was still in Maine but here in Florida, just another beautiful day. It would be perfect except the tree trimmers are here making so much noise. But they'll be gone soon, and all will be quiet again. I miss the noise you made with the music and all. I miss seeing you and your dad, but know, that you both are always on my mind. Love you so much ! Mom.
