Yesterday

Isabel, our mama.
You were the very definition of unconditional love. Your heart was always open, welcoming everyone with a warmth that could be felt from a mile away. Your garden was always giving, a reflection of your generous spirit and the beautiful life you cultivated. And your smile was as big and bright as the sun, a light that will never fade from our memories.
It was a true blessing that my son had you as his mama. To know you was a true gift, one that we will all value forever. You touched so many lives with your endless kindness and love.
Though we will miss you dearly, we are comforted knowing you and my dad are hugging again now, together in peace. You will live on in our hearts and will be missed beyond measure.

You have always been a strong woman and I have always looked up to you. As an adolescent I always admired that you wore a gold anklet and I wanted to be just like you. Well guess what I have worn a gold anklet for years and I still do. Love you titi ❤
