Today would have been
Edited on Wed Jun-25-08 04:15 PM by lost-in-nj
my Moms 77th birthday She died in Feb. 2006.
For some reason this birthday is bothering me more than the others....
My mom never drove a car, was a SAHM, taught me how to iron and appreciate music.
she wasn't a musician or anything she had a love for music, kinda like mine.

She lost her parents, her husband (my dad), her 2 sons (my brothers) and her brother (her only sibling).
A few days before she died (she was home with hospice) she was telling my sister and me the out fit she wanted to be buried in and she said
I know it's time, I have been with my girls now I want to be with my boys.
She was a strong woman and we miss her terribly.
I just wanted to wish her a Happy Birthday and acknowledge her life....

thanks for letting me do that!!!


:hug: :hi:

7. Very nice.
I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my mom in 2002 and I honestly miss her more each day.

With every milestone my children accomplish, I am so sad that she's not here to celebrate with me.

15. you are a very special daughter
and you brought great joy into her life. Birthdays will always be hard, but that's because of the wonderful love shared. It's really a blessing.
