Today is your birthday. This is your second birthday not here. Which I still can’t wrap my head around. I want to celebrate you today like I always did when you where here. Now I just have to do it a little differently.
Right now I would like to share what a great woman you were. I always remember as a kid we didn’t have much, we didn’t have the luxury on going on big trips like other families did or have the expensive outfits and shoes everyone got for back to school. But you know what seeing you work so hard to put a roof over our head, food on the table and always taking us on adventures as a single mom,was way more powerful than all those extravagant things that we wanted but didn’t need .
You taught us to work hard and to never give up. You always showed us you wanted better for us and we saw how hard you worked and I thank you for that I wouldn’t be the woman I am today if it wasn’t for you .
You were so kind hearted and truthful! You loved your family so much and I love the way you valued family! You where always the “bigger person “ in a lot of family situations which I don’t know how you did it and I’m still learning from you with all of that. you truly are the best mom I could ever ask for .
You where literally the best shopper! You always made shopping so much fun! The people watching we did together will always be a memory between going to the beach Walmart or even just walking around the mall. I miss your facial expressions and your diva attitude. You always had the best advice I miss our phone calls so bad and being able just to tell you about my whole day and you actually listened !!!!!
I miss you texting me when was I going to pick you up to hang out and then you would be waiting by the window for me to pick you up. I still drive by your house and wish to see you at the window !!!! You where the best friend I always wanted !!! You where the role model I needed for me to be the best mom I can be for my girls .
Mom the girls and I will be celebrating you today I will be talking about you all day ! Mila and I will be baking you a cake ! Speaking of Mila she misses you so much and talks about you everyday !!! It kills me and warms my heart at the same time. You where truly her favorite she will always love her MiMi ❤️
Happy birthday in heaven Mom. I love you so much and miss you so much 🥰

I just lost my mum (2 weeks ago) so reading this is like glimpsing into my own future for us as a family and especially for our daughter (mum’s grand daughter). So nice to see you still ‘celebrating’ – shall make sure that we do the same!

I am so sorry for your loss! The one thing I no for sure is my mom didn’t want to be forgotten especially by her grand children! So definitely celebrate her and always talk about her ❤️

Thanks for this and we’ll be sure to follow your advice! At the moment we’re staying at her house following the recent funeral and, surrounded by all her things, it feels like we’re still in her warm embrace.
