Feeling Sad
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM
Today is my Moms Birthday
She would have been 89! Last week was the one year anniversary of her passing.
It has been a long year..I can't count the times that I needed to talk to her, ask her advice and just know that she was there with me in my corner no matter what..Her and I against the world..lol..
I seem to be having a harder time today than I did last week..I don't know why that would be.
Tonight before I took Jeremy to work and then headed to my own job, we stopped at the store and bought a helium balloon..I told Jeremy that we would hold onto the string together and then let it go, while wishing Grandma Happy Birthday..His reply,,,,Right here out in public...lol...Yes...and that is exactly what we did..Maybe it is a little strange. I know that we don't have to DO something for our loved ones to know that we are thinking of them..but I wanted to do something for my Moms birthday and I had always gotten her a balloon..So, I will keep the tradition going..
My heart will ache for her until I take my last breath.

Happy Belated Birthday to your Mom. Having lost Doc's Mom early this past Dec. I know the feeling hon. There are moments it hits each of us and we cry for the loss...I try to remember we all have footprints across our hearts of the ones we lost to remind us they are still with us in spirit. I think it's a great idea letting the balloon go in rememberance of your Mom.
On a side note, I've been thinking of you lately and wondering how your doing. I hope you know you can email me anytime about anything. I'm here for you dear friend. (Hugs) Indigo

Layla, I know you miss your mom terribly and how hard it is. Having lost all my siblings, my mom & dad, a husband, and a son, I do feel your pain. You will go through times, especially with my son, when you think it is getting easier and then you get hit with another wave of missing them so much you nearly want to join them. My son was gone 15 years the 21st of Dec. and it was like it was yesterday. Lucille
